Your post regarding “parking on the pavement” makes it seem so.

So what? I have been about a foot away from Derek Jeter at Yankee Stadium. Does that make me eligible to play in MLB?

There’s a difference between law creation and enforcement. We are talking the latter. In this case, yes again, the purpose for these traffic cops is to generate revenue. I am not sure how else to explain this but we can agree to disagree.

That doesn’t make them wrong. Also, where did you come up with 99%? Someone in the family?

That’s not the point but OK.

Again, that’s not the point. Who cares? We all know it’s their job to enforce the law. It’s their justification for doing it (ie I see a black guy or a young kid driving an import) that makes it wrong.
