With the youth of today (and yes some older ones) if a policeman told them to pick rubbish up they would probably end up getting a mouthful back. Then i suppose it could get into a slanging match where upon the police person (political correct) would have to arrest them, then spend a few hours filling paper work in. After all that the offending person would walk out of the police station laughing and if they had a copy of the arresting form (or whatever it's called) promptly throw it on the floor. In my opinion that could be the reason the don't tell people to pick rubbish up now. The police would probably be better of giving them a clip round the ear, but could you imagine the outcry if they did.
