I am disturbed by an apparent attitude of many citizens that they may pick and choose which city laws they will obey and which ones they will ignore. It would seem that most drivers ignore the 35 mph speed limit within the city even through school zones when the warning light is not blinking.

Another example are neighbors who become angry and feel put upon when spoken to for playing Frisbee with an unleashed German shepherd on the median in front of my home. Other neighbors' dogs, again unleashed, have attacked my leashed dog as we are walking for exercise around the block. I now fear walking my own dog.

I see people park in handicapped spots to make a quick run into a grocery, no handicapped signs hanging on their rear view mirrors.

These are deliberate choices made to ignore and break a law. Not accidental breaches but with awareness of what they are doing. Need we OK their actions by closing our eyes rather than pointing out to them what they are wrongly doing and standing up for our own rights?
