The Law is an ass...

[dglang]

would you believe Fife as in Barney Fife?

[Samwise]

But please bury your orange peels on the hiking trails, eh?

You got it. :^) I think we should ask for a government grant to help us determine the difference beteen litter, trash, garbage, and nature.

Meanwhile illegals are flooding across the border and 80 year old farmers from Iowa are getting strip searched at the airport. go figure!

Local gov'ts are so desperate for funds they have devised never ending strategies to scam the citizens from rabid enforcement of parking and obscure driving regulations to jay walking and the courts will back every one of them.

[Blood of Tyrants]

I'm betting "Fife".

[Misterioso]

Anyone want to bet on the relative size of the cops gun and his penis?

You think he carries a Derringer?

[Samwise]

So much as a single Sunflower seed, tossed on the roadway, can cause Global Warming.

She probably caused those hurricans in Florida.

[xzins]

I was feedin' da birds, Judge...honest.

"Anyone want to bet on the size of the cops gun and his penis?"

Actually, they are probably about the same size as your brain.

Morgan said she couldn't afford the $558 that county officials said it would take to appeal the ticket.

Democract in Oklahoma? You are guilty because we say you are, and if you say you are innocent you are even more guilty. Sheeesh.

"I thought it was all right to throw out apple cores to feed the rabbits and the squirrels, . . . " she said.

Wonder if there's a rodent problem in her neighborhood.

[Widows Son]

Just an FYI.
the last time I heard, OKC had the lowest educational requirements of any police department in the midwest. Many of their officers are their because they couldn't get hired at any other departments.

[nothingnew]

Boy!...that apple guy, what was his name?...Johnny Apple Something, he could be doin' real hard time.

Mr. Reality has left and Mr. Inmate is running the asylum.

[RIGHT IN LAS VEGAS]

I am heavily involved with "STRIP" construcion here in Las Vegas.

I am a Manu. Rep. and visit all the Casino/Union work.

When I first started, I thought all the Union Journeymen were on CHEW. No way.....it was the deadly sunflower seed shuck!

The seed shuck was propulsed airborne from every plumber, electrician, plasterer, metal stud carpenter and even an Architect or two from sub-basement to tower crane above the STRIP!

(Did I mention deadly accuracy?)

The deadly seed shuck is lying everywhere in Las Vegas. I can lead you to the location of a National Brand Paint store where you arm would get chopped off for taking a seed out of turn.

I know the the new Palms Casino Hotel Tower will have a bed of sunflower seed mulch, right up to the front door, all the way to BlackJack. :)

So................if an OKC cop has water vapor dripping from his tailpipe..he's polluting the watershed?

Don't accidently drop pocket lint in that cop's presence. He may drill you with a couple rounds for environmental terrorism.

[yarddog]

Things like this really outrage me.

Plain and simple, the cop and judge using their positions to brutalize a citizen. They deserve to be thrown in jail for a month.

"Officers are required to enforce all statutes and ordinances regardless of what they are ... because what to one person is very insignificant (is very significant) to someone else," Sgt. Charles Phillips said.

The lowlife unionized donut-muncher means that they have ticket quotas to meet.

Wonder if there's a rodent problem in her neighborhood.

If rodents are a ''problem'' then the little critters are already getting plenty to eat...so 1 sunflower seed isn't going to matter. And, you could look at a sunflower seed in a traffic intersection as bait. ;-)
