Partygoers vomiting in the streets are the newest targets in the Queensland government's crackdown on drunken behaviour.

 

That's just barfable

I can totally understand your bafflement, gary, because politics is all you seem to have. Did you read the OP at all?

"Mr Newman said he hoped the codes would help change the culture of drunken behaviour and violence.

 

"The ultimate code of conduct is this: go out, have a great night out in Brisbane or any city or town. Have a whale of a time but just understand that the test is your behaviour mustn't impact on other people's enjoyment of that night-life scene as well," he said.

 

"It's not just about swinging a punch at someone, it's about making the middle-aged couple with their kids who are trying to have a night out in the CBD uncomfortable because people are running wild."

 

The codes will urge patrons to conduct themselves in an orderly manner while enjoying a night out by not vomiting, fighting or being a public nuisance."

 

Maybe you could broaden your perspective a bit to comment on the behaviour of people who think their night hasn't been successful unitl they're passing out drunk, brawling, and spewing in the gutter.

 

How do you feel it such a law could be enforced? Will it cause increased violence? Will it curb people's drinking habits? Do you think Qld is losing tourism because tourists are sick of drunken people running amok and vomiting in the gutter while they're having a meal? How would you feel? Have you had a  similar experience?

So many things you could be commenting on, but you choose to attack Premier Newman because you can't think outside of your political square!

I don't know why anyone would think a code like that would put off tourists. I suppose a big number of young people are tourists ( think schoolies) and a lot of them do drink to much and barf everywhere... As it is only a code they can ignore it if they wish and carry on engaging in anti social behaviour.

If there is less antisocial behaviour in touristy areas like surfers, more families may go there. It is pretty ssedy there now isn't it?

Congratulations. It's not bestowed lightly.

There are no public hoses or taps locally so it is tip toe through the vomit every Saturday and Sunday morning walking to the shops but I really feel sorry for the little ones playing soccer first up because the vomit is usually still quite moist on the soccer fieds at 8am on a Winter's morning, the littlies usually have mopped it all up (ie by falling in it) by the time the adults get on the fields late afternoon.

 we'll I've probably been a victim of someones mess myself on a sporting field. i've had my own children half drown me in this material as well.  i don't think it such a big deal, and i don't drink at all .. never.

no the reason for my scepticism is simple, its a rather stupid unenforceable idea from a premier i think a loony for the most part.  a man with a compulsion to punish anyone he judges as lacking. he approaches almost everything he does in entirely the wrong way..

That would take some skill, to be passing out, brawling and spewing in the gutter.

I don't think they'd win the fight while multitasking in such a way  😄

how could this not be political when it is all about idiotic politics from an idiotic government.  the current qld government gets more obsurd by the day.
