“...for having a policy of arresting people for such a minor trangression”
Do you have any idea how much liquor, cigarettes and DVDs/BluRays are sold illegally.
The movies are HD and perfect - just no menu, scene selection or anything of that sort. The movie just starts.
The liquor is dirt cheap, and are name brands (Southern Comfort, etc).
Same for the cigarettes.
It is a *massive* market.
Nope.
No idea.
But this wasn't a confrontation over cases of booze and truckloads of North Carolina cigarettes.
Do you have anu idea how many 'loosie' cigartettes have to be sold to pay the annual cost of one street policeman?
Me neither, but I bet it is a huge number.
That’s great, glad you enjoyed your movies. But why arrest people for such a minor transgression?
