without enforcement, the legality of something means very little.... like jaywalking on the street. no one's going to stop you but it's totally not kosher to do that - so everyone does it
Going to have to disagree with you on no enforcement of jaywalking. I have seen that be enforced several times here in Seattle. One of those times may or may not have led to my arrest despite not being the one who jaywalked. I learned that many police have thin skin. You also need cash to post bail so if you are getting arrested and want out quickly, make sure to have $1000+ on you to do it.
Don't the cops just take it if they find you with cash? Might not be a good idea.
