If someone commits an offence (drunk in public, or whatever its called), why not punish them? Why punish the majority of law-abiding citizens?

Does it matter where the drink was purchased? Shouldn't the message be "responsibility for one's actions"?

Hmmmm.... punish the guilty as opposed to the law abiding...., encourage responsibility for one's own actions..... Novel concepts those Norm, do you reckon they'll catch on?
