I've been contacted by a reporter with the California Connection newsmagazine (never heard of it) looking for examples of stupid laws in San Francisco. For some reason Ned Roscoe, our erstwhile gubernatorial candidate, told her I was an expert on this! 8) Of course I'm not, but I don't mind if it will get some press.
Anyway, she's supposed to call back, so I'm trying to find some material for her. Please let me know ASAP if you're aware of any local statutes that the average person would see as dumb. (I know, the reality is that at least 90% of the laws are dumb, but at least 90% of the people are too dumb to realize it. Actually I don't think people are dumb, but it was fun to say that!)
I'm busy poring over the municipal code -- talk about a bureaucrat's wet dream! Pages and pages and pages of "unlawful" this and that...
Yours in liberty,
