He was stopped twice, given tickets twice, but has four tickets for driving more than 8 hours without a break.

And got 4 tickets for driving without an 8 hour break, the EXACT SAME CRIME.
That is why I said "pretty sure only two of those are valid". One from each time he was pulled over, totalling two.

I really wish they would increase the fine for the idiots that do this. $263 is such a paltry fee for the damage and utter disrespect for the culture.

We're ignore the 7-hour time difference and Just go with the fact that you don't understand what double jeopardy is.
Double jeopardy is for the EXACT SAME crime - as in the same charges from the same incident that happened at the same time. Double jeopardy isn't killing someone and never being able to be charged with murder again and it isn't getting out of every speeding ticket because you got one in your life.
It may be possible to argue double jeopardy if he had received the ticket and then a few miles down the road while in route to a place that he can bring himself into compliance he received the same tickets but that isn't what happened.
What happened is he broke the law.
7 hours later he broke the law again
He doesn't get a get out of jail free card just because he already broke those laws.

Joe Smith, formerly convicted of fraud, 'found' the Tablets of Moroni somewhere or other -- maybe in Latin America, but more likely in his own stateside studio. Via careful 'translation', Smith revealed sacred stuff to the world. I once resided near his base of operations. Strange place, Palmyra NY. Follow the tornado damage there for a hint of how divine powers reacted to Smith's efforts.
No, I doubt Joe Smith founded LDS for revolutionary terrorism -- more for just power and sex. That worked till he was lynched. Sad. 8-)

Well since its in Montana. And since biden said they weren't going to do anything about. He never said that we should do anything about it.

They rather see it for themselves. Remember the chinese government only trusts themselves. Not even their own people.

Or aliens have been hanging out for 75 years just watching us, remaining mostly out of sight until good cameras, then really staying out of sight, like Bigfoot and the Loch Ness monster.
I bet on the aliens.

There are some people that think this might have been the strategy behind the 1947 Roswell incident. People think an unidentified Soviet object was shot onto us soil to incite panic about aliens.

Disrespectful dumbass deserved it. It is common for tourists to think they can do whatever they want. The worst is when they crave up and engrave stuff on ancient things.

Didn't something similar happen at the same place? A woman shot a TikTok there.

Register your pregnancy with your state government? What could possibly go wrong?

No LSD was an invented chemical compound. It isn’t anywhere naturally. There are however other psychedelics found in nature.

Nope. Every time something like that happened at this company, they just looked the other way. If the person still worked there at the time he/she was caught, the person was fired, but that was about it.

Like, I get the overwhelming stranglehold of far right parties over politics there but like, you'd think considering it's Israel of all countries they'd at least be upset about someone literally calling themselves a fascist
