[edit] Quotes
- Monroe: Tickets for bird feeding? Now that’s real police work.
Bosco: It’s a quality of life summons.
Monroe: All that’s gonna do is leave a bunch of hungry pigeons. - Guy: Oh, come on Officer, that’s pretty close. Cut me a break, man. That’s close.
Bosco: Look, the law does not say “pretty close.” It doesn’t say “somewhere in the neighborhood of 15 feet from a hydrant.”
