Poll: Was it the right thing to do?

[razer17]

Oh yes, definitely.

But that's not how to law works, the PSCO was in the wrong to confiscate alcohol from your friend who was drinking legally. Unless he actually saw him pass a can to the under-age guy.

That is how the law works. If the PCSO had reasonable suspicion that the minor would be able to drink (by having more cans passed to him) then he can confiscate it all. And i would say it's pretty reasonable to say that one of the older lot would have given a beer or two to the young'uns.

on the other hand the bag searching was illegal, as was giving the wrong number out.
