The Mules had an encounter with Burbank Police yesterday. While walking on sidewalk along Glen Oaks Boulevard. a police officer pulled up in front of us got out of his cruiser. The Monk reached into his pocket and extracted his phone and took a picture of the officer. The Monk then asked the officer what was it he wanted he didn’t call 911, he didn’t ask for any help. The officer said oh no problem you’re not doing anything wrong you’re not being detained I’m just curious as to what you’re doing never seen a horse walking down Glen Oaks Boulevard in Burbank before.
The officer then started to ask questions where were we from where were we going the monk declined to give any answers. The officer replied that’s fine no problem. The officer then asked if he could pet Rosie and take a picture the monk said sure.
Before the officer left he did inform us that the Burbank municipal code ordinance disallowed leading a horse down the sidewalk we could lead the horse on the street but not the sidewalk. The Monk informed the officer if he walked Rosie down the street competing with these dangerous weaponized speeding automobiles he would have been injured or dead long before the officer made contact. The officer agreed he said that’s why he wasn’t going to cite us. He then said you need to keep going through Burbank because if I see you again on the sidewalk I will cite you and then he left wished us a nice day we did the same.
