Five-hundred-square-foot affordable housing may meet the letter of the law, but I don't think it meets the spirit.

Well Larry, lets do this. Lets just push these trees cause I know there is going to be some in this corn. Yeah, let's just push the trees, get to the other edge and then we will decide what to do.

We have to understand the law is an evolving principle; it's an evolving concept.

The law is silent on those two issues.

Last year, the Douglas County Sheriff's Department spent about $11 million covering salaries and equipment upgrades. Law enforcement is a lot more sophisticated than it used to be and we need equipment today that we never needed before. When you call, we have to be there. We can't worry about trying to get out of the vehicle and push it down the street.

When you have a new law like that put into effect, the public focuses on the issue, maybe drivers and people think a little more about their drinking habits.
