Jim, are you one of those people who's never done anything which
conflicts with authority? That's why you've never been reluctant to
ask permission? You love rules because it weeds out the riff-raff?

You're not seriously comparing two people having a 31-minute picnic
with a cell phone camera (thus needing a film permit) to a bunch of
people simulating a gang fight in the alley at night?
This is getting ludicrous, but okay:
"Sure, you've got a film permit, homeboy. Keep your hands out of your
pockets."
Jeez.
Talk about your ridiculous examples.
