But once they are moved in, things change, and everyone wants to interpret the rules to match their wants and needs. The powers in TV try not to make downright orders for everything, hopeing that people will do the right thing and abide by TV's rules or suggestions. The papers say "no saving seats", and the people say--"they don't mean me, or I'm going to do what I want" The papers say"no scooters on the MMP", and the people say "they don't mean me-I am going to do what I want". The pool rules say or suggest that all lap swimming, and organized classes should be done in the sports pools, and the people say----"they don't mean me, I am going to do what I want." I could go on, but that;s enough. There are 100K people here, and if everyone does what they think ok, then everyone starts stepping on the other people's rights. If that happens, the powers might have to get downright demanding, and impose restrictions none of us want, just to protect the rights of all. Just my opinion.

I agree with you, but I also think at least half of the onus is on TV to enforce the rules it has set up to begin with. They want to keep everyone happy, but really, they are only keeping the rule breakers happy with their no-enforcement-without-loud-complaint policy.
