#1 Hey, this is Bloomsburg's city, if you can't do real art, you'll have to pay a hefty fine. Where do you think you are, Paris ?

#2 The report came in as graffiti, and, as you know, the city is trying to crack down on graffiti on private property, said agency spokeswoman Cathy Dawkins.

Its a standard warning letter, added Dawkins. The property owner has 45 days to remove it or ask the city to remove it. Well inspect after that, and if the graffiti is still there, the property owner has another 60 days before well write a summons.

For sidewalk chalk that would dissolve at the first rain? Dawkins said the law is on her agencys side.

The instrument used whether its paint or chalk does not matter, she said.

Ms. Dawkins, stand and hear the verdict of the Rantburg Superior Court of Common Sense. You are guilty of felony stupidity in the first degree, with a special circumstance of public-sector bureaucratic hackery. You are hereby sentenced to write 100,000 times, "I will not be a drooling, diaper-soiling idiot on the taxpayers' dime." On the sidewalk in front of the Department of Sanitation offices. In chalk.

#4 Dawkins said the law is on her agencys side.

The law is a ass. As are those that passed it in this form and more those that enforce it thus - see zero-tolerance statutes for more examples.

I recently read some website thread where one of the commenters made the point that, far beyond any threat from the feds, the greatest threats to most peoples' liberties come from local tyranny.
