Never seen one at the Square.People Lighten Up. Ps,If someone told me thats a $500 fine for feeding the gators or turtles, I would say "call a cop"
Maybe I'm just not getting your point. I apologize. So, let me get this right. It is OK to break some laws, as long as you get to pick which laws to ignore? It IS against the law to feed gators, but you have decided you don't think this law is important so it is OK for people to ignore it. I guess folks who ignore other laws (like breaking and entering, burglary, assault, etc.) are just following your lead--they are deciding which laws are "OK" to break just like you. Not what I would want to teach my grandchildren (when I am blessed to have some).
