I also have been hassled about drinking ANY beverage in the street by cops. Once it was drinking coke from a styrofoam cup walking down revolucion. The cop looked inside the cup, took a SNIFF (YUCK) and let me go. The second time was in the Zona walking toward pollo bar from AB w/ a can of coke in my hand. The cop again smelled what was inside and let me go. They didn't so much as ask for ID either time, and my attitude was sarcastic amazement that they didn't have anything better to do than smell my beverages on a busy Friday night. You seem to have a much more positive attitude toward these THIEVES than I do, while it sounds like you have been messed with while minding your own business far more often than I have. It pisses ME off when I hear they are fucking with people. You are probably right that it is just the way things are down there, but I don't understand how you can be so rational about it. Of course I have been accused of being hot tempered a time or two... :)
