In Southern Germany in a town by the name of Bayreuth, the German
police are in a quandary. The town's dog poo is under attack. Park
officials are desperate to resolve what could become an
international incident. Unknown person or persons have been
sticking little US flags into piles of doggie poo for over a year
now.
Surprisingly the dog poo brigade has managed to target between
2,000 to 3,000 abandoned piles of excrement in Bayreuth public
parks. Quite who actually counted them all and provided these
statistics is debatable but the source is rumoured as coming from
the Parks Administrator ' Josef Oettl. And you wondered what your
parkie did each day'
What was thought to have started as a protest against the Iraqi war
has continued through the US election campaign and is still a
regular occurrence today. Have the German's not heard of poop a
scoop' Surely all self respecting German citizens collect their
doggie poo. Poop in the parks and pavements was surely just a
British thing'
German police are now stepping up patrols in order to catch these
offenders. However, the poo could hit the fan if they ever tried to
bring them to court. It is unclear what they would actually charge
them with as there is no law against using doggie poo in this way.
In fact, you could fly any flag from any piece of turd you find
lying around. It's not illegal but it cannot be a pleasant
task.
Surely this wouldn't catch on over here in the UK 'would
it?'
