Hah. East Germans know exactly what this sort of thing will lead to: selective enforcement against those that the police wish to target anyway. Nothing like a bit of good old snitching to the authorities. Too bad if you're not lily white and walking around in a posh - or not so posh - neighborhood past what others think should be your curfew.

Of course, if you are witness to a serious crime you should report it. But if someone waters their lawn, sleeps in their car, or pees in their garden then that's their business and usually not yours so as long as you are not inconvenienced you should mind your own business lest one day the tables are turned and you forget to bring in your garbage container. And that's before we get into reporting people 'walking while black', those things might actually be against a law.

If you're breaking N laws per day think about what the effect would be if those were all enforced. Do not do unto others... And don't give racists even more tools for harassment.
