doesn't really matter, they'll just crush the cage, too.

They didn’t send the SWAT team?
They didn’t shoot a dog??
The good news is that the Garden City police keep the Hempstead residents on their side of the border. The bad news is they give out tickets like meter maids.
Just another NAZI stormtrooper in a different uniform.
No. These officers were helping the men navigate through the complex legal system.
We had crap like this in a city around here a while back. That is till they voted down the millage 3 times and lost a bunch of officers.
I’ll remember THAT tactic ... it’s GOOD !
How do you clean up America from this kind of crap? Civil War and give life to all current politicians right from local to Federal. They quit working for us a long time ago. Oh Well, I can dream can’t I?
lol
Seems to me this officer was being really nice and would much rather not have to do this “garbage”. Neighbor calls police, Lt. directs cop. He’s mostly laughing at the situation. He knows it’s BS, but has to answer call.
In Garden City, NY, there is apparently a village ordinance aimed at preventing people from washing their cars (and furniture) in public places.

OK, cars and furniture are not the only things that people wash on their own property. Some people routinely power wash their house siding, brick facades and concrete driveways. Others wash off lawn spreaders, tools, and kids toys on their own front lawns. Why are cars singled out?
We once rented out a home and were told by the homeowners association that we couldn’t have a bird bath in the front yard. Yet another house about 200 feet down the street from us had one in their front yard. It turned out that some of the neighbors didn’t like the fact that we rented out the house. The whole issue was nothing but a petty vendetta and attempt to get us to sell. But we got the last laugh. We later sold it to a family that trashed the place and the neighbors couldn’t do anything about it because the new owners were a protected minority. LOL
Did they kill his Parakeet?
Anybody here familiar with legal case law, from state to state, regarding “public places” and private property and private property being considered a public place?
The officer should know whether or not the driveway is a public place, as opposed to the street curb in front of the house.
If the driveway is not public space, then the officer is violating law and harassing the citizens.
I’ve encountered officers in two small situations who did not know the law. (Lane markings on a city street. City parking sign interpretations.)
Actually, it does. What could be more middle class American than washing your car in your driveway?
I’d be willing to bet those guys are running a car business on their residential property. They probably have a different car every day, getting detailed, sanded, filled, painted, etc.
But man, it’s no wonder I don’t live in NY. I don’t like that cop, I don’t like the video guy. They all seem like butts.
