Given that alcohol has the effect of removing self-control at certain dosages and this person would have been encouraged to drink more than he was used to given the circumstances, then since all he did was crap on the floor and he didn't put anyone in hospital (unlike the imbecile that put my son in hospital for no reason)then these things will happen- unless of course alcohol is banned!
We are all assuming that the incident was intentional - even if the intention was 'warped' by the intake of alchohol. However I have known those who are 'very, very, drunk' to have quite genune accidents where their ability to get to and use an appropriate receptacle is overtaken by events (or even where they are unsure that they have reached an appropriate place). I suspect that most of the near, and not so near, misses in pub lavatories are associated with this, rather than with an intent to shock and dismay. The 'friends' of the stag in question all appear to be arguing that this was not an intentional action on anyone's part, and that at least, as far as my own expertience of alchohol fuelled festivity, is not implausible.
If it was one of the stag party and it was an accident (still grim and not easy to forgive imho), then the appropriate thing would have been for one of the perp's mates to at least offer to clean it up. And they should have left a hefty cash apology behind the bar.

If you're getting at what I think you're getting at, it would be more likely they'd guard the cubicle than the whole thing. Far too obvious.

Could it be possible that one of the lads had seen some stray urine on the floor of the toilet and - fearing a slip by another unwary EDT punter (leading to a possible no win/ no fee claim) - had resolved to guard the door until the manager could be fetched and a yellow warning sign placed?


Then, coincidentally during this time, could not a sudden and unexpected earth tremor have dislodged an unflushed log and threw it out of the pan and onto the floor?


Surely this is possible? We can't go round making accusations until all the possibilities have been explored.

"However I have known those who are 'very, very, drunk' to have quite genune accidents where their ability to get to and use an appropriate receptacle is overtaken by events "


Well fair enough then, the old under-the-influence get out clause, "I was pissed so it doesn't count".

- Oh I shat on the floor in the public loos - but i was pissed ! Oh, well no problem then, perfectly acceptable in that case.

- I ran over your daughter - But i was pissed ! Oh well, be my guest, I hope your car wasn't too badly damaged, can I contribute to the cost of some new panels ?

- I gave my girlfriend a black eye when we argued - but i was pissed ! Not a problem, please don't feel bad about it.


No problem. If you can't handle your alcohol, it's not your problem, it's everyone else's.

This.

Surely if being pissed was the problem he would have taken his "deposit" home with him in his pants rather than managing to pull them down before he even got to the cubicle.


Then again, he was wearing a dress and maybe he wasn't wearing pants? Which I guess would make facilitation of the whole incident much easier whether it was on purpose or an accident.

Exactly!


Let's stop giving this person thw benefit of the doubt, it was a prank that they thought was hilarious at the time, simple as that.


But also agree with KK. I've regretted a few rhings I've said or done whilst under the influence, but I was still responsible for those things, the booze didn't somehow give me license to be a prick.

    • Thanks for that - none  of mine  have been Mordena - whilst vulnerable cat, think I will just take my chances… Will be having flu though - certainly not by choice - much prefer not to but in vulnerable group.. Avoided them until last year…. Luck of drawer if you are as sick as fog  or just sore arm … assume - god knows - that flu jab is same throughout country.       
    • Wow, that is what it costs for one prisoner. So they get full board and lodging, 24 hour  monitoring  in over populated prison, we are led to believe, minimum exercise, assume a tv in each cell provided - in USA it is together with wash hand basin and c toilet - some have showers as well.   Clearly this amount of money takes  into account overstretched and overworked prison officers, protection for them, counselling which is, in my opinion a bare minimum dealing with prisoners in all settings. Do if Sweden can look outside the box, why can’t we? Or are we just not bothered at all / read statistics some where that reoffending is normal and to be frank, with economy as it is at the moment re employment, cost of living and homelessness..not surprised they reoffend to get back inside - food provided, roof over your head - much better than street living, mixing with wrong crowd, trying to get roof over your head, find a job where 90 % won’t employ you as been inside..
    • @beansprout The Swedes seem to have a useful strategy with regard to offenders  which has reduced repeat offending.  I agree that prison time for minor offences is a complete waste of time. Even worse is that prisons are "colleges of crime" where inmates learn about how to be do crimes and worst of all, become exposed to drug taking. I wouldn't advocate having chain gangs as in the USA but some strategy for getting them into say manual work under supervision might be useful - especially if it came with a modest wag. This would be significantly cheaper than the £51,100 it costs per year for  keeping one in jail.
