Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Loafing" and "loitering”, as used in that subsection, carry the idea or connotation of merely idling and of doing so for some time____ Time and purpose are both factors to be considered in deciding whether a person’s conduct constitutes loafing or loitering. Perhaps the most satisfactory equivalent of these terms, as used in this statute, is the colloquial expression “hanging around.” No definition based upon any particular length of time would be satisfactory in all circumstances.”
