barelynangel -> RE: Cops ticket women for sitting on park bench and eating doughnuts (6/16/2011 5:36:25 AM)

The only thing i can think is they have issues in that area with people sitting there when kids are there and people have complained. And the other story does state that the cops have been reprimanded by "not doing their jobs" so to speak, because they only give people warnings but now write the citations to show they are doing their jobs.
This isn't a concept to bitch about the officers in question, but the process all together.
And while there may not have been contact info on the ticket, it's not that hard to find the court clerk office on the internet.
I think the cops have a bit more to do than writing citations of ladies eating donuts on a park bench, but from what it sounds like -- these cops were doing their job and in this day and age, risking their job by giving a warning rather than writing a summons, i agree with what they did. Let the ladies fight it out in court or at the city hall if they don't like the laws. The cops are there to enforce same and unfortunately, they have been told to write the summons and not warn because it will be noted on their job performance as not doing anything all day if they just go with the latter.
