"Excuse me Sir, do you know it is illegal to drink in public"
"Who are You?"
"I am a concerned citizen who is wondering why you are drinking in public."
"What are you going to do about it??"
"Well, I am going to take a photo of you because you are breaking the law."
So then the "gentleman" turns his back and keeps drinking and I wait patiently until his curiosity gets the better of him and he turns around to see if I am still there and SNAP. As a good friend of mine always says "het jou katvis".
I then asked him if the blue WV Golf that he was leaning against was his car, to which he replied in the negative but as I was getting ready to take a photo of the car anyway, his friend came running over and asked why I was taking a photo of his car. I explained that it was a way to track his friend and then he got quite aggressive and started to threaten me. I hopped into my car and waved politely as I drove off.
Cell phones with cameras come in very handy and I use mine whenever I see someone breaking the law or something that looks suspicions, it's one of my favourite "weapons".
