So basically it's time to treat everyone like they're children. [img]http://unclutterer.com/wp-content/uploads/mt/070919-sippy-cups.jpg[/img]
They're missing the point. ANYTHING can be used as a weapon, if used properly. Even another person. Just lift them up, and swing them at your foe.
[QUOTE=Kilgore 2nd;17025647]Instead of banning glasses, why not stop the late night frigging drinking deals and stuff all these clubs have that's causing most of Britains drinking problems. I should imagine less drunk people would mean less glass to people's faces.[/QUOTE] lol prohibition
Don't diss them cups lankist
That would just create British Speakeasies
What if, just maybe... This is just a thought, okay? How about we punish the people who've been stabbing innocent drinkers with the broken glass instead of punishing every drinker for using glasses in the first place? Sounds stupid I know, but... Perfectly fine for them to not let you have glass glasses when you're outside, but this is just silly.
Drinks taste rubbish in plastic
what the fuck is this shit, just let me live my life you cunts, you don't get a say in every single fucking thing. FUCK
People are way over reacting in here. Someone mentions a plastic glass and people start going on about how they're taking freedom away, I mean you could say the same about seat belts, "how dare they make me wear a seat belt, I can drive I'm not an idiot." Plus it hasn't been passed at all yet, MPs are human too, they know the difference between a stupid idea and a good idea. Plus in clubs they mostly use plastic glasses anyway.
I'm glad that Inner-nottingham bars and clubs use plastic glasses and bottles. Even in the student union you can see a few fights a night. If they all had glass weapons at hand every time, things would be a lot worse. Not to mention it stops all the glass spilling all over the dance floors. You see a lot less of these [img]http://img.metro.co.uk/i/pix/2007/07/Glassed_450x388.jpg[/img]
This is the main reason I'm glad I don't live in the UK, they have too many bans on stuff. Besides that, I think I'd probably enjoy living there.

What the hell? 5500 people out of the 61 million that live here (with a large portion of that enjoying a pint now and then) is absolutely no reason to bring in such extreme change. I really wish the government would stop using the minority as an excuse to punish the majority.

[QUOTE=Deadollie;17025363]The Home Office can just fuck off.[/QUOTE] YEY, Home Office = Dictatorship.. They should be worrying about how many illegals are in the uk (several million) than how many small incidents happen from a glass....
Seriously, just no. I see their logic but they have obviously never been to a pub.
