FYI: David Berkowitz was arrested after he got a parking ticket. As Mayor Guiliani has proven, when you take care of the little crimes, it often takes care of the larger crimes.

I totally agree with Giuliani about small things being related to big things, but I question whether the punishment fits the "crime" in any of these examples. I see no reason to arrest any of these people, but citations are in order if there is a violation of the law. In addition, there is no reason to get physical with any of these people. If an officer has to resort to violence with someone eating a candy bar or talking too loud in public, then there is something seriously wrong with the officer's methods.

The "Nanny State" is upon us.
