re: Teen charged in crash that killed 5 family members...

no the citizens have a right to see those animals. No one owns them but if you poach then you are hurting the citizens of la.

Sometimes procedure needs to be broken for common sense. I would rather some discretion than robots applying law. There is a middle ground between using only emotion to make decisions and always following procedure. How often does a single car crash happen like this one? it must not be all that often if this was special enough to pop up all over the news. So instead of just acting like a mindless robot, LSP should have taken into account all the variables of this crash. 1. this kid shouldn't have been driving. 2 the parents shouldn't have been sleeping. 3. He flipped the car and it didn't hit any other drivers. 4. the kid has been through enough we don't need to hustle him out of more money. This is an extreme circumstance and doesn't create precedent. Sometimes procedure needs to be less rigid. I promise you chaos isn't going to come down on the state if a state trooper uses some common sense and says you know this kid has had a horrible life changing day, I don't need to tack on a stupid meaningless ticket. Plus lets not act like cops always follow SOP anyways. Plenty of warnings and shite like that are given out so hiding behind SOP in this instance is just being scared to say we only care about collecting revenue.
