The police originally told him to post fliers.

"Ignorance of the law is no excuse."

If the police find the dog first, they will shoot it as a precautionary maneuver.

Seriously, you think police enforce all of the laws?

Give me an ever lovin break.

They generally only enforce laws against those who won’t hurt them back.

Chances are most of the cops wouldn’t even know about the ordinances. That is especially true in a place like DC that probably has thousands of them.

Its what I like about where I am. Few ordinances and even fewer code enforcers. When I had a cop move in next door he asked me if it was legal to burn brush in the yard. I told him “I don’t know but everybody around here does it anyway”.

When the county tried to force some countywide ordinances the Township supervisors overwhelmingly said no. My township supervisor said it would be pointless because we would just ignore them.

Conservative who has been watching too many of our police units devolve into a bunch of thugs.

Yeah, I have a really bad attitude towards thugs.

Seems to me some bureaucrat’s assets need to be forfeited to pay the fine, probably the asshole who made the harassing call, then there would be fewer calls

I wouldn’t mind a fine for leftover garage sale signs.

bad enough they don’t bother to take them down, usually they have no date on them either
