alot of people don't like that interpretation

or just don't understand it

odds are, many of us have commited small infractions of the law and may not have even known it

yep. because of the buricratic nature of the legal system.

well

vehicular laws

J walking isn't a crime tbh

everyone violates

yup

j walking isnt something anyone is gonna arrest you for tho

Also Luci is right everyone has broke the road rules at some point

more than that, there are hundreds of laws still on the books people violate every day

unless you do it in the middle of a busy city street

like the blue laws for example

not just that but there are laws that exist on the book from the founding of your country. because they dont ever expire, they just nolonger get enforced.

illegal to drink on a sunday in someplaces

exactly @Shai'tan

thank you JANET

very educational

problem is, those like luci tend to think in absolutes

as if life were only a set of rules

I do think it is a problem that there are laws on the books that aren't being followed

They should be followed or removed because otherwise we might end up with something real important being ignored in that manner

selective enforcement is the way those in the know manipulate the plebes

as long as you don't piss the wrong person off, then you are good

i have always been the type to argue that for a law to be passed it must have a justification for its own existence attached. and a time limit for it to expire. so you have to pass the same law every few decades, and if its justification no longer makes sense. the law can pass out of the books with no effort.

See Count Dankula being fucked by the courts for details

Well, try working in gov sometime

I like that idea also Shai but I can see where you could run into problems with that

everyone passes more and more laws

but only 8 hrs in the day

and no one stops to consider that two laws might make moving impossible

Laws built ontop of questionable laws

so it becomes a game of "here is what we SAY we do vs here is how we get the job done"

night my nibbas and my boomers

night Flavius

i care less a bout the probelms the solutions causes, because the way the system works at the moment has infinitely worse problems.

Like there are some laws that have so much shit built ontop of them that you can't just remove them without massive run on effects

well, if a proposed solution has said effect, it ends up exactly what we are seeing

it's like two parents that fail to put on a united front in front of children
