Like you and me, oh wait
WATE:
Knoxville police issued their first citation under the city’s 2003 “pooper scooper” ordinance,handing a judge’s wife the ticket for refusing to pick up after her dog.
The law was designed after people complained about dog feces in the downtown area.
Michele Jenkins was cited Friday after a bicycle officer watched as Jenkins’ red chow defecated near an intersection.
Jenkins is the wife of Knox County Criminal Court Judge Ray Lee Jenkins.
Knoxville police says she was given an opportunity to clean it up, but refused.
Seriously though, clean up after your pet.

Man…isn’t failure to comply with a police officer’s orders a throw-your-ass-on-the-ground-mace-you-and-handcuff-you offense?

Unfortunately though, that bicycle cop will probably either be pulling desk duty or looking for another job soon.

To paraphrase the old chestnut on the limitations of liberty…
Your dog’s right to shit ends where my step begins. Especially when my tax dollars paid for this sidewalk.”
Someone should pick the turds up and mail them to her husband’s chambers.
