[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, I think as taxpayers we have to ask whether we want our law enforcement and prosecutor resources to be used to deal with fare jumping when there are lot more serious and impactful things they could be doing. That is always the point of these decriminalization initiatives - to prioritize and re-allocate finite resources. A $25 fine and/or a desk ticket is fine with me. [/quote] Good luck getting the little thugs to pay the fine, they don't care about being arrested because the juvenile justice system in this city is a joke, what makes you think the current fare jumpers are going to care about a fine they'll never pay?
