Ralphy I have a feeling you failed reading comprehension in school. The story points out that the city has ticketed nearly 75% of the entire town population

"Leon Hale (who is Black) says he spent a day behind bars earlier this summer over two traffic tickets he received more than four years ago for driving on a suspended license and not having insurance. He had heard about a nearby town wiping out old tickets, so he thought Ferguson had surely done the same. But then he was pulled over by a police officer and taken to jail. At the most recent court date, he told CNNMoney he had been hoping to get the charges dismissed but was put on a $50 a month payment plan instead. Ferguson said it applied the $200 Hale spent on bond toward his total fines of $304 -- leaving him with a balance of $104."
4 years ago?.. no problem, lets all rack up tickets and the cry foul after 4 years of not paying, not contacting the court. looks like he had the money to pay it after all
I have paid every ticket I have ever received, even when I was broke and had nothing, I showed up to court and asked or payment plan.. VERY EASY,,
