There has been a wave of deadly shootings in Paterson this summer, and the City Council will soon consider a measure which would be "the nation's first citywide, non-emergency curfew to include adults". I wonder what Paterson's finest social engineers were up to around this time last year...
The Gistsmith suggests: If felony charges don't deter people from hurting others, neither will misdemeanor ones. Everyone go out for a late night stroll anyway. Then, when the majority of Paterson's responsible citizens have been cited for disregarding this ordinance, file as amicus curiae in each others' hearings. Fun for all, including the courts!
