paying in pennies
United Press International - The Washington Times, America’s Newspaper
A man who tried to get even by paying a traffic ticket with $120 in pennies got upstaged by a North Dakota judge who made him stay until they were counted.
Judge John Pearson told the newspaper he thought Zukowski’s anger was misdirected.
“If the person is mad at the cop, why take it out on court administration?” Pearson asked. “They’re punishing the wrong people.”
well, how exactly does the judge want people to take their anger out on the cops? besides, isnt it the courts job to make sure that the cops are pursuing justice, not giving stupid tickets?
(btw i got the date for the court appearence today, its September 27 or something)
