Seeing will be believing
Raise your hand if you have ever seen someone in Rome get a fine for not picking up after his or her dog, or for letting it run free without a leash.
Raise your hand if you have ever gotten a ticket for double-parking your car (I got one recently when I ran into a pet store to get cat food but I bet I am part of a very very very small minority).
Raise your hand if you believe that the people who smoke in Rome’s parks (between June 15 and September 30) are really and truly going to get tickets.
Nuff said.
