It is revenue and intimidation, just look at the Outback Steakhouse event. A deputy buzzed the parking lot and threated loitering.

Just keep a lower profile, be polite, and look like you can afford a good lawyer and the hassleshould be small.

Just my 2 cents.

i like the part where you state
"look like you can afford a good lawyer..."

The police did a similar crack-down on Mid-Night during the year they put the seat-belt law into affect...

Toooo many people protested so the judge just dismissed DOZENS of them the day I showed up. I'm sure he did the say the days to follow..... MORAL OF THE STORY..... PROTEST IN NUMBERS AND YOU'RE SURE TO DO BETTER....

Imagine if everyone of those guys protested their tickets, filed against the department or the officers on the deail? I'm sure the officers who were ever so happy to snap up the O.T. would be sure to think twice the next time around....
