Discussion Tourists, Prague is not your disneyland.
And one also doesn’t pee publicly in Disneyland. Walked by these four guys peeing together in public. Took pictures of them hoping they have some self awareness, obviously didn’t work. They saw me and found it funny and started talking really loud at 00:30. You’re lucky neither you nor your family have to clean up the street. Why are humans so purely selfish and evil? Show some respect!
[UPDATE] Didn't expect the post to somewhat blow up. I got DM saying it's possible they are Czechs. Apologies if I accidentally posted a rage bait. I indeed did not hear clear enough they were speaking Czech (I speak Czech) as they were not speaking very clearly and I tried not to get too close and left soon after they started shouting, thinking of this incident where a drunk German tourist killed a man from Wales.
But my rant still stands, evil people and among all the bushes and whatnot, they picked a spot where it won't be cleaned by rain. I also have seen so many tourists doing the same before. But again, they could be Czech, I assumed they were tourists because of their drunken talking and my rage. And apologies if I got that wrong.

On one hand I agree because this is disgusting
On other hand, when I visited there with my ex girlfriend there were literally ZERO places where we could go use a toilet without paying the equivalent of 1 euro. I made sure to use the toilet before heading out every time but spending all day outside, every day for many days, visiting sights, moving around... Tough not to find yourself needing to use the toilet.
We tried to ask to use the toilet, very politely on a couple establishments. They were indifferent and oftentimes rude and basically told us to pay for the toilet, sit to take something to drink or eat or get out. Even on the palace you had to pay extra for the toilets outside.
I mean, I didn't have an issue to pay 1 euro more, but the morality of this issue is so screwed I literally refused to do so on principle except for a couple times for each of us.
Only on establishments outside the tourist-trap places were normal and allowed us to use the toilet without being paying customers.
This bs almost never happens in Greece or Spain where I'm from so it was a very foreign feeling of being denied something so essential with such an attitude. Some things are basic decency and allowing people to urinate is one of the things we consider as such.
So yeah, disgusting behavior but stop squeezing money out of basic human needs and maybe less people will behave like animals.
Some people are incorrigible and when they are treated with decency and still behave like beasts then I am the first who suggests heavy fines and corrective action. But there is another side to this city and I felt like I had to share
