to want a ban on glass bottles in nightclubs...

[claricestar]

...and other late night bars/venues. incidents of alcohol fuelled violence increase late at night. a ban on glass bottles may not stop people fighting but it could help prevent some of the fatalities and serious injuries.

Please visit this facebook page set up by a woman who has recently lost her husband and father to her two children due to her him being the victim of an unprovoked attack with a glass bottle.

(yes I know...a thread about a thread, but it's a good cause!)

Leena - was that necessary??

Or are you being ironic as that poor bloke won't be doing any more growing up?

if you read the article leena you will see it was a work related event, not that it matters of course

So when you have kids now nightclubs are out of bounds- and if you get assaulted/murdered you shouldn't have been there????? I'm stunned by some of the stuff I'm seeing on here lately

I haven't been in a nightclub in years that had glass bottles - I assumed they all had plastic bottles tbh.
