Crime is a huge problem there. Drugs and poverty as well.
Many live miserable lives of quiet desperation. Cost of living is outrageous.
Men are on edge there. I do day game and wouldn't think of going out to a bar/club at night. Sexually frustrated, beaten down and emasculated men, combined with drugs and alcohol= random violence.
As for cops/law, different fines of different sorts come up all the time.
parking fines are double what they used to be a few years ago.
$400 fine for being caught driving with your phone, as silly as that is now with Bluetooth/hands free.
It's a city run by radical feminists and homosexuals, totally out of touch with reality. Hence these ads.
Only think keeping men from losing it totally, are the abundance of Asian 'massage' places on literally every strip of every suburb (I'm not advocating it, it's just hilarious how many there are these days). When I was in Melb I'd see men in their 20s, 30s, 40s and older walk in there.
Yes, everything I hear about cities like Seattle, San Fransisco and Toronto, is what Melbourne is like.

Surely that must be the case if the police are spending the time, energy, and resources to conceive of, produce, distribute, and then enforce this kind of thing. Life must be perfect there if that's what the police have time to spend on.
I'm only half joking here, in very law abiding societies, the cops DO get bored and come up with minor infractions (ie: littering) to enforce. It's certainly possible that's the case in Victoria, hence the somewhat sarcastic question.
In Germany when the media became ridiculously obsessed with Trump coverage, where even news about Jared Kushner would make prime-time news or front page coverage, I would ask the exact same question. Living there at the time, I knew that things were NOT perfect in Germany, and this was a pathetic distraction that many Germans took to in order to help ignore the rather glaring systematic issues facing the country, all of which were of far greater consequence to almost any news about Trump.
Back to the police ad: If you shake your head at some random aggressive dude on a train, you are asking for trouble. What if the "leerer" has friends with him and he starts talking shit to you? Now you're in a position where you need to back down like a bitch, or perhaps escalate further leading to a fight. Over some chick who doesn't have the emotional strength to ignore/confront some dude staring at her - or just move herself to another location - or just wait until her stop hits.
Anyway, TL;DR .... who has time for this nonsense?
That about sums it up. The CBD has a heavy police presence, they tend to patrol in groups of four or more. Semi regularly there's some shocking confrontation, like the massive brawl in federation square a few years ago.
There's definitely been a movement to particular areas becoming Chinese or black etc. etc. For the most part Melbourne is extremely left wing politically too, along with an attitude of if it's not in the city is doesn't matter. Like wind farms are fine, it's not like they're something you see everyday or have to deal with.

Thanks for the response. I suspected that was the case, but I try not to project my pessimism when I can find out first hand.
Right on cue for this topic, I just read that yesterday there was a nightclub shooting in Melbourne and somebody got killed, three injured, one of whom is fighting for his life.

No reports of leering during the shooting. Campaign is working.
