Make litterbugs pay

Catch the culprits in the act of throwing trash out of their car windows and give ’em a ticket. In addition to court costs, charge ’em $250. It works in Georgia. See for yourself. Visit the Helen, Ga., area. (Our state highway patrolmen may have to drive unmarked patrol cars, though.)

Yeah, but dood luck with that. I wonder how many noise ordinance tickets they have actually issued. Or how many dog AND cat owners have been fined for letting their pets out without leashes? You know with all those red light cameras (when they were being used) their should have been enough free time for the police, but no such luck. Don't you just love it when they take time to pass laws that they have no intention of enforcing?

ooops, should have said "there should have been". Sorry for the flub folks!
