    There’s probably not any one single thing that I would do but interestingly enough I was charged once with a misdemeanor for providing food to the homeless and arrested, finger printed, and then released. At the hearing, the arresting officer failed to show and the judge, being a rather empathetic and progressive individual had the following to say to me:

    Since the arresting officer has seen fit not to respect this court’s time, I am formally dropping the charges. I will go off of the record for one moment: Young man, some laws were intended to be broken. I applaud you for choosing wisely. Back on the record: I will order the record of arrest expunged because I see no benefit to society in having a record of this young man’s arrest for performing what is essentially good civil service. And so ordered

    I am reminded that there are good people in this world.

      That’s beautiful, thanks for sharing. People like you and the judge, who will go against the grain to do the right thing, are what let me hope that we as a species might someday be able to get our shit together.
