The speed limit is 55mph then drops to 45mph near the town. Fail to slow down fast enough and you will have your picture snapped and you will be fined. The town is within its rights to enforce this.

But what if all laws were enforced this way? Do you want camera in your home? work? school? You and your kids could be ticketed for all kinds of things. Spitting on the sidewalk, putting a booger on the bathroom wall (yes there is a law), j walking, going too slow, etc.

Would we be safer if all laws were enforced to the fullest extent? These laws were put in place by politicians, not God. Could it be that politicians had in mind to create a traffic situation that would bring in revenue? Like dropping a speed limit down to 45 and then setting up a camera?

Are we all sheep and obey a law simply because it is there or do we do what we can to fight against injustice by bringing light and embarrassment to those who would create and enforce a law for revenue? Make no mistake, this is NOT about safety, its about money. If the program did not generate revenue, it would be shut down regardless of any life it would save. If you don’t believe that, you are naive.

Is it always an all or nothing thing when it comes to laws? Does a speed limit apply to police? no, fire? no, ambulance? no. What if your kid were dying and you had to get them to the ER? Too bad. How come a cop can drive whatever speed he or she wants to regardless of the circumstances? Why are they above the law?

I am not saying all law is bad. Just saying that before you blindly say that this guy is wrong, you take a hard look at your own life, and specifically your driving habits. If you have sped while behind the wheel, did you go ahead and send in the money for speeding even though you didn’t get a ticket?

Is it breaking the law ONLY when you get caught? Why don’t some of you law abiding citizens pay a fine every time you speed regardless if you are ticketed? Don’t be a hypocrite. Is it right for me but not for thee?

The difference between the majority of you unquestioning adherence to the law types and this guy is a camera that caught him and you simply have not gotten caught.
