    So is unsociable behaviour, but the ‘respectable’ amongst us are an easier target! (Does that wording please you better Iceman?)

    It actually makes my skin crawl when I see them, its a shame they are in that position and I understand some don’t have anywhere to go (except for the job centre to cash their giro’s that we are funding). They smell, their rude, they are thieves and they are heroin addicts who leave their dirty rotten needles wherever they like!

    Maybe we should have a centre at the top of a mountain, far away from the town of course, to send them all there and let them to do whatever they do :)

    So by this premise anyone who fights in town is automatically a drunk and/or a junkie?

    Most of the time, yes! But even if they weren’t drunk or high, fighting is still anti-social behaviour that we shouldn’t have to put up with!

    … or were you defending the average Wrexhamite’s right to fight like an animal in the streets?

    There’s nothing respectable about speeding I am afraid.

    Right. So you know every single person who has ever gotten into a fight in town, know what they have taken, what they have had to drink etc?

    Yes fighting is anti social behaviour but it doesn’t mean that person is drunk or high.

    I’m not defending anyone’s right to do anything, nor am I condoning it.

    I wonder do we have an increasing problem in Wrexham or now that there are various services and people with misuse problems gravitate to the same places. There are now less pubs in the town than 20 years ago so the issue must be cheap booze from supermarkets. Those over the age of 40 must remember the pre breathalyzer days when people who had drunk ‘quite a bit’ would stagger to a car and drive.
    When there were more pubs in communities and the local ‘offie’ people just abused drink but in their own communities and parents would warn children not to go near the local drunk. We can’t assume the problems have increased but now appear to be concentrated rather than spread out.
    I dont have a solution but just want people to think back when they were growing up and how the issues used to be dealt with.
