No it does not. Beer being drunk openly in the street is not a crime. Just because the US has a crazy paranoid obsession with alcohol/sex/drugs doesn't mean that those things are culturally similar in Germany of all places. Now try breaking a window in Germany and see how well that goes over.
- Semiapies 17y agoAgreed. Legal prostitution and recreational drug use aren't "symbols of social disorder". The real social disorder is the fallout from criminalizing these things.
- RyanMcGreal 17y agoBravo! These observations seem more insightful than the essay itself and are certainly worth exploring in more detail.
