No more drinking for me, thank you

I would like to say thanks to the Rustenburg police for beating me up this weekend for public drinking.

I would like to say thanks to the Rustenburg police for beating me up this weekend for public drinking.

I now know that its wrong and I will never do it again. But what I thought while I was on the ground being kicked by nine cops is that if the police were so caught up in enforcing the law as far as other offences are concerned, no one would ever get raped, mugged or shot.

People's houses would not be broken into and people sleeping would not be killed in their homes at night.

Yes, the police are really gifted at beating up the wrong people.
