    Just saw Cctv footage on Beeb news of a woman smashing dozens of bottles of wine off the shelves in a supermarket down south in some sort of Covid rage.

    She got a caution. A caution.

    She needed locking up, that is no punishment.

    Just watched it. I don't agree. She needs anger management counselling.

    You are right , she went crackers in the shop smashing everything & anything & terrifying the poor shop assistant . I could not believe she only got a caution , at the very least she should have got 200 hours community service & made to repay the cost of the damage .

    With the title of this thread l thought this was some device that was on sale for breaking your bottles up to put in the wheelie bin to save space - one of the great inconveniences during lockdown.

    I've still a chance with Dragons Den.

    Disgusting, no wonder they do it!!!! No point locking her up but there as to be a punishment of at least paying for the damage.

    I was in Tesco yesterday and there was a guy going nuts pouring domestos all over the fruit counter.
    He was arrested and charged with Bleach of the Peach.

    Would the shop keeper have been justified to smash a bottle over her head, if he felt threatened?

    Yes I would say so if they felt physically threatened. Would soon put a stop to that. But then the shop keeper would likely be going to jail, ironically.

    There's an outside chance she has kids and went home with that anger. I'm sure a caution helped keep those kids out of harms way.

    I was in B&Q just browsing when Bosch, someone hit me over the head with a cordless drill.

    They could use "Wine Bottle Smasher" as the fill in line for "Fairy tale of New York".

    Perhaps not, but treating her anger would afford a longer term solution than locking her up to build up more rage.

    I didn't realise that destroying wine was such an emotive subject, no wonder off-licences are considered as essential shops.

    I thought that originally but flashing someone in the coop before smashing a load of wine bottles felt a bit weird. But it's all a bit weird anyway
