Just a quick thought on San Francisco's new "sit-lay" law that recently passed. If you were found sitting or laying on a public sidewalk, that could get you police warning first, and then a fine of between $300 and $500, and as much as 10 days in jail, but only if you were discovered 24 hours later.
I wondered how that would impact San Francisco's Union Street Festival, held during the first weekend of June, where patrons, at times loaded with drink, do indeed sit on the sidewalk. (I haven't seen anyone lay on it at the Festival, but I'm sure someone has.)
Oh, here's a video of what the Union Street Festival is like:
At any rate, given the unfortunate fact that the law is targeted at the homeless, it's certain that San Francisco Police aren't going to be rounding up Marina District hotties and tossing them into the slammer, let alone giving them warnings.
They might try for a phone number, though.
