3/1 In case anyone's still interested, I saw a cop standing on the corner
of Telegraph and Durant for at least 30 minutes doing nothing else
but giving out citations for gaywalking. At least one guy was able to
"talk" his way out of it.
\_ Just run and hide in Unit 3 somewhere.
\_ I wonder if there was an accident recently?
\_ What's the penalty for it? Also, how do they enforce it? Can't you
\_ It's the law that you must carry ID. Whoops, another ticket!
say you don't have ID etc?
\_ I've been told that there's a law that requires all adults to
carry some form of approved ID on them at all times out in public.
\_ He's just doing his part to fix Berkeley's budget deficit.
\_ I guess this is what happens when people keep breaking
parking meters.
\_ Nonsense. The parking meters are set to give less time than
they say so they give out more bogus tickets. Breaking meters
was civil disobedience.
\_ um, no. how many meters did you break? i broke and
destroyed maybe a dozen or so over the years in
berkeley, and knew people who destroyed more.
none of us ever drove, had cars or parked. it was just
random violence.
\_ I remember about 7 or 8 years ago, the bike cops would nab
gaywalkers during the weekends. I heard one cop telling a
gaywalker that the fine was 75 bucks.
\_ Mine was $40. When I forgot to pay it, my mom got a
threatening call from some bitch affirmative action hiree at
the BPD--"he's in trouble, he's committed a crime." -John |
