What government does

Via Rodger, we have this:

The District of Columbia — a city famous for its hard-ball policing of parking violations — has apparently come across a new way to increase its ticket revenues: aggressive enforcement of pocket trash.

After 28-year-old Andy Chasin found a used FedEx address label in his pocket, he threw it into a corner trash can. But that was too much for the city waste inspector, who has fined Chasin $35 for — “Improper Use of Public Litter Receptacles,” insisting Chasin violated statute 24 DCMR, 1009.1, which states — “Public wastepaper boxes shall not be used for the disposal of refuse incidental to the conduct of a household.”

It’s probably for the best that people in DC aren’t armed.

    I sat here in stunned silence for about a minute before I could even type this comment. You have GOT to be kidding me.

    For the powers that be it’s always “for the best that the people … are not armed”.

    OK OK. Choir? Did you hear that?

    Amen, brother!

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
