<p>Also how much is the fine for violating noise ordinance in ann arbor?</p>

2

<p>Talk to the good folks over at the PAT program at the school of music. They have an email system and can put out the call.</p>

<p>PS Likely more than the pot fine ;)</p>

3

<p>I need it within 4 days, do you think they can get one that quick?</p>

4

<p>K- don’t encourage him!</p>

5

<p>why is providing information “encouraging”? and encouraging what?</p>

6

<p>I think he meant encouraging u to have drugs?</p>

<p>Nikeboy: Actually, I think fredmar suspects that bearcats plans to demonstrate Friday when President Obama gives the commencement address, given his recent comments to Wall Street, and bearcat’s proclivity to be fond of Wall Street, which has served bearcats well. Since I personally have no qualms with Obama or his administration per se (and comparatively speaking) I would agree in general that I should not encourage bearcats. OTOH, as a lover of free speech, if bearcats needs to rent a pa system from a PAT kid to get heard, hey, so be it ;)</p>

<p>hey bearcats…whatever u do…please don’t disrupt the graduation when Obama comes. These students most certainly deserve the respect of enjoying their graduation.</p>

<p>p.s. this and your need of air advertising “within 4 days” is leading ppl to believe your trying to do something really stupid.</p>

10

<p>Friday is going to be really, really fun. :)</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Couldn’t agree more. Please don’t ruin it for the graduates. They deserve a nice graduation no matter who the speaker is.</p>

12

<p>If you want to demonstrate (and certainly the Bill of Rights does give you that choice), please keep it respectful and do not overshadow the commencement ceremony itself. It is the graduates’ day and they deserve to have the spotlight on THEM – not on loud, angry demonstrators trying to get on TV.</p>

<p>Do it, I want to meet you! Though I wasn’t planning on going down there Friday…</p>

<p>I always support people’s right to be as obnoxious as possible. </p>

<p>Anyway, here’s what I found for penalties for noise, but you could have googled it… <a href=“http://library1.municode.com/default-now/template.htm?view=document&doc_action=setHitDoc&doc_hit=6[/url]”>http://library1.municode.com/default-now/template.htm?view=document&doc_action=setHitDoc&doc_hit=6&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Fine: $500</p>

<p>Don’t know if there’s a separate “disturbing the peace” sort of deal. </p>

<p>By the way, if you could also yell at him for further giving doctors and the medical industry the power to control the American people and taking trashing the rights of the people to diagnose and treat their own medical conditions on their own (which was already being ignored, but has just been pushed to an impossibility), I would appreciate it. No one seems to ever mention it. I guess no one has ever expected that they shouldn’t be constantly raped by laws which do nothing but put money in the hands of the medical industry, cause widespread death, and are now fining people who have seen this and kept themselves healthy enough so they would have to deal with it, which is the worst part. </p>

<p>That was my political rant. </p>

<p>Plenty of us don’t really care about Wall Street but are still not Socialists. Represent them too. Capitalists unite!</p>

<p>I’m going to start refraining from these political debates that somehow tend to ensue whenever bearcats makes a post – freedom of speech, do whatever you want, make yourself appear however you want. I do not believe noise violations start at $500. I think they start fairly lower (~$250?) and increase with each subsequent violation (resetting after 365 days?). (My fraternity has gotten several over the years.)</p>

15

<p>Okay, than some amount less than $500… It said punishable by a fine no more than $500. I figured for disrupting the graduation ceremony that the President is at, they’d want to give the full fine.</p>

16

<p>Noise violations start at xx dollars and scale up as an address/citizen gathers them. (Has been an issue because kids have gotten hit with huge fines for a single noise violation due to previous residents.)</p>

<p>From experience on football Saturdays, the cops will ask you to turn it down. If you don’t, you’ll get a ticket and they’ll make you turn it down. Since this is graduation day and not football Saturday, I doubt they will have much mercy. Any loud that reaches the sidewalk from where you are can probably be grounds for a ticket.</p>
