Its not the cause - plenty of people manage to get drunk without behaving like this. If you behave like this there is something wrong with you.

True on both counts.

Quite scary to think that some of those who do this are the parents of tomorrow.

 

Even scarier,  some are Parents of today,  good role models,  NOT.

That's sad and probably bang on too.

Well as we all know,  now the crews are wearing body cams, so when they are been assaulted ect,  hopefully it will be good evidence for the Police to bring charges and put them in front of a judge to get their just deserves.

Won't happen, the assaults are almost always done by kids, and even though a kid can get arrested from the age of 10, the law seemingly can't or won't do anything to young scrotes.

 

All they have to do is "no comment" in an interview with the Plod, and they get away.

 

I know that from 30 odd years of watching The Bill

Of course it is a major cause.

Some people turn nasty or get nastier when drunk.

Try visiting A &E late on Fridays and Saturdays and see what the staff and other waiting customers have to put up with as well as the police and paramedics

Indeed.

When the pubs chuck out on a Friday and Saturday night, that's when A&E gets busy, and also Police custody suites.

Speaking to police they would prefer dealing with a drug addict to a drunk any day of the week. If alcohol was introduced now it would probably have to be a controlled substance.

 

Presumably these young scrotes have parents. What are they doing to control their kids?  Why are they not teaching them how to behave? And if not, why not?
