    For having a leak on the sidewalk for example in the night when everything is closed? What would happen if Gardai seen you? Since they are everywhere at night trying to catch honest citizens.

    Yes

    I know someone who was

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    Its a trick question. There are no sidewalks in Ireland and Gardai don't have powers of arrest in the US.

    It's because naturally you are able to hold in a wee but you can't hold in a poo. Peristaltic movements in you digestive system means when it comes out it comes out no matter where you are.

    Good luck to you finding a country where pissing in public is allowed.

    Regarding whether or not you can get arrested, it seems like one of those things that's completely down to the discretion of the individual Garda. If you got one who was in a bad mood, you could be in trouble. Could be charged with being drunk and disorderly.. or if you were particularly unlucky 'indecent exposure' (wouldn't want to end up as a registered sex offender)

    Is that near Germany , where you will definitely be arrested if caught pissing on the street?

    99% of civilized people manage to control their bodily functions within generally accepted norms.

    Why dont you join us and not be worried about getting arrested ?

    The fact that you don't understand me tells me everything that I need to know. Sometimes you should relax and look at life from a positive side and laugh about some things instead of getting grumpy about everything. Less people like that and the world will be a nicer place to live with less grumpy a##holes.

    But the external sphincter muscle is voluntarily controlled, not autonomically, controlled. It is made of skeletal muscle. It has nothing to do with peristalsis, a different operation altogether.

    I find it far easier to control a No.2 than a No. 1. When I need to pee, I need to pee now.

    ......the words Marshall Plan clearly mean nothing......

    .....and btw, Ireland's per capita income exceeded Germany's until about 1935, and this little speck of dust produced many of the generals that sent Germany back to back to Stone Age in 1945 :D

    You've posted some amount of nonsense as of late but this is by far the most idiotic.
    Can't tell whether you are serious but you seriously think being allowed to piss wherever you want, be it at a bus stop, the entrance of a restaurant or on a police stations door is a smart way of having things?
    The only.piss you seem to be able do and do well is take it.
