| Re: Don't make a sound! The Gov't revenue boys pick up an extra sense Don't they have anything better to do? How about devoting that time and engergy to catching thieves, robbers, child molesters, murderers and the like.
Wanna know why they don't? Because it doesn't generate revenue like this stoopid shiiat does.  |

I saw a decal on one bike and it said, 'if it's too loud, you're too old". Well......... I'M TOO FREAKIN OLD!!!! |

| Re: Don't make a sound! The Gov't revenue boys pick up an extra sense I'm so glad my tax dollars are going to such useful projects.  Now all we need is for someone to design a camera to detect and fine j-walkers and all will be perfect in the eyes of the law.

| Re: Don't make a sound! The Gov't revenue boys pick up an extra sense Do you Aussies have the gang-banger style, mega bass car stereo BS over there? I would like to see ALL of their asses get fined to the max! Or better yet, simply taken out of the gene pool, since they really shouldn't be reproducing.  |

Z... | D'oh! Don't get me started on the jaywalking issue. My starving college student son got a ticket for that in Los Angeles a couple of months back. 11:30 at night, in the crosswalk but on a red light, a cop actually gives him a ticket for $120.00 (!). Every big city I've ever been in, people cross when it's safe even though the light is red. Give me a break - don't they have real criminals to chase in L.A.?  |

| Re: Don't make a sound! The Gov't revenue boys pick up an extra sense Clearly not... There are no real criminals in LA. The place is full of the rich and beautiful, no one would ever commit a real crime there..
