80 per cent of Peace Bridge side panels shattered, Calgary police investigating
Police say witnesses reported the vandalism as being done by a man in his 40s who used a hammer, rebar and bricks to smash the glass. He reportedly walked across the bridge starting on the southwest side and pushing a shopping cart with him. |
It turns out that publicizing how costly vandalism is and putting up signs imploring people not to do it has the opposite effect to what officials hoped.
Why do we have to pretend that people only do bad things because they’re ignorant and misguided, and that education will correct their behaviour? Why can’t we recognize deliberate, malicious, anti-social behaviour for what is?
