Gingernuts, in answer to your question. Yes i do stop people who are breaking the law. I point out to people that they have "accidently" dropped litter, I have stopped a number of drunkards racialy abusing a member of staff in a tube station and would help someone getting mugged. Dont get me wrong, if I felt my (or anyone elses) life was in danger I would be straight onto the police but sometimes you have to do something immediatly.

I would rather speak to someone who lets their dog **** on the pavement than cross to the other side and tut. If I dont do it no one else would. Unless we ALL take a stand against people who break "little" laws we will soon find ourselves in the position where people do not give a damb about any laws.

I feel that we may already be to late there.
