  • Sorry, but that's not how society works.

  • "if the park were empty, then it would be empty."

    It would be empty only of the obedient and/or uninterested citizenry, (which admittedly includes almost everyone).

    "We shouldn't prohibit anything?"

    We shouldn't prohibit an activity simply because it might lead to a crime. But we should prohibit crime itself. To be clear on the difference you must understand that a crime has a victim. If there is no victim, there is no crime.

  • Um, if the park were empty, then it would be empty.

    If an individual is in the park when no one is allowed in the park, that individual is guilty.

    Really? We shouldn't prohibit anything? Well, why do we have to license guns? Let's just sell them to anyone. Let's give everyone driver's licenses. Why keep people off of tarmacs? Why put locks on doors? Why should banks use safes?

  • Humm, you could get an astronomy book from the library. That might make it entertaining.

  • "Keeping people out at night will keep the park intact."

    It seems to me that if the park were empty it would make the vandal's mischief much easier. No witnesses. And don't forget that an individual is innocent until proven guilty. You shouldn't prohibit activity on the basis that it "might" lead to a crime. If you did, then everything would be illegal.

  • This is boring. No cops. LOL

  • That doesn't mean they're doing the maintaining. They're doing the using and in some cases the vandalizing.

  • They pay to maintain it through taxes as it is a public place. Educate yourself.

  • Does everyone maintain it too?

    Wrong.

  • How do you know that they don't pay for it? Even if they don't, it's still public property. Either everyone owns it or nobody owns it.
