If people don't like the laws, they can change them via the elected officials.


Then again, some federal judge may overturn the will of the people, so I may have to retract all of the above at some point.
If it were only that easy... i don't know if you are defending Waldo or not, but they are running a scam. It is set up to ticket people. I believe the point of speed limits is to protect people, not scam them out of money. Hell the cops came forward because they felt it was wrong.

Of course I warn them that I have no permit for my 'gun'.  Like I said, no tickets.  But I have been tased a few times.

Unfortunately, every date must come to an end somehow.

Back in the good old days before tasers, cops carried batons.  Technology has ruined everything.

How is ticketing a speeder a scam?

 

Think about that for a second. So the chief says he wants more tickets written. Maybe he knows there are still too many speeders in his town. I love how lawbreakers want to blame law enforcers for their predicaments.

 

If it makes people feel better by blaming the cops because they have to pay a fine to speed, then so be it. Personal accountability is a lot of hard work. Too much work for too many these days, and they are oh so easy to spot.

What lies behind us, and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.

Dakota, the cops turned their own chief in. Are you really arguing that the cops that turned their chief in are wrong too? How can I blame the cops when they agree with me? The city is set up to catch speeders by dropping the speeds significantly in a short period of time. It is done to get speeding ticket revenue, not for safety. Never mind the fact that it is illegal to set a ticket quota. That is a scam.

Are there signs before the drop in speed limits that say "reduced speed ahead"?
