One of the things that this visitor to CA found disturbing was how so many signs have the code number of the law listed on it. Made the visit feel more police-state-ey. Even the little cart that carries tourists up the hill at Alcatraz had a "do not board moving vehicle" sign on it with a legal reference.
CA has a really weird relationship with government.
- kinkrtyavimoodh 9y agoI think it's cool that you can go look up the code number and know exactly what the law is and what it requires you to do. Surely that is less police state than a board just screaming penalties?
- vacri 9y ago"Don't board moving vehicle" is an instruction which implies no penalties. "Don't board moving vehicle/legal code #123v4" is an instruction which implies legal ramifications if you disobey.
