What to do about it is the problem. Targeting us is targeting the wrong people. We might have the odd miscreant amongst us (curse them) but overall it seems licensed owners are pretty good, and clean.

The focus needs to turn on the underworld, not us. We are easy picking, but pretty blameless.

I think you mean we have a CRIME problem generally but sadly that appears to be far too too hard to deal with or solve so "red hearings" are cast out everywhere

Its become more about "being seen to be doing something" rather than doing something and the media seem to lap it up
