When I was in Djibouti back in the mid 80s, the locals would politely squat down next to a building and proceed to defecate, with no concern whatsoever that they were doing so in public.
Sounds like downtown l.a. or any downtown u.s.a.
Yes, saw a guy last month on Hollywood Boulevard walk up to a trash can across the street from the Chinese Theatre, unzip his pants, and relieve himself on the sidewalk. Unbelievable!
I was crossing a street in the paradise of San Francisco and saw a naked man urinating on a parked car.
I pulled out my camera and started to take a photo when a cop walked up to me and started shouting that I was obstructing traffic and he would ticket me if I didn't keep moving.
I pointed towards the naked man and said, "What about him?"
It just made the cop angrier, so I kept moving.
