You want to see abuse, go to San Francisco and check out Chinatown......

These guys think they can use those placards forever. They abuse the system then react violently when caught!! I hope the City prosecutes to the fullest extent of the law!

Well his feet, legs and reflexes seem to be working well to make the stop and scare the shiboodle out of the meter maid. Do they give handicap parking passes for people with anger management issues or do they make them park even further away!?!? Moral of the story for meter maids: give the ticket with nobody seeing you and get the hell out of there!

She probably jacked him all up and treated him like crap- as they ususally do- and he got even more upset. She has no authority to take any property including a disabled plate. She thinks her badge gives her 836 powers of arrest. Never will get conviction for ADW. Another over-charged case because someone messed with one of their own brothers and sisters at SRPD. Charge the guy with felony parking and get on to more important issues. This is a waste of time. Send the meter reader to class on how to deal with difficult people. SHE should be a professional and know how to deescalate these situations- not get in the guys face and jack him up and get him more angry? Was I there? No. Do I have to be? No- they do it all the time and enjoy ruining everyone's day downtown.

An entitlement issue? Hmm, I wonder if this individual was from Marin? There's plenty of them there!

I don't think you see where I'm going. Being white and a BMW driver doesn't mean you have a license. Fair reporting would make not having a license an appropriate item for every traffic story. |

RE: LINK to the little dear's MySpace: Ewwww.....that's kinda like looking at a bad wreck but you can't turn away. I think I threw up a little in my mouth. Remind me not to ever go downtown again. Watch "Parking Wars" on A+E network, it's a hoot how stupid people can be when boldly breaking the law. They, too, end up learning you can't outrun Motorola. There's a cop right around the corner. To the pokey. Oh, and I've almost been run down several times both on and off the road by BMW's. They're the new Crackermobile for the lower class, it seems. |

This had nothing to do with BUSINESS, you dolt! It had to do with illegal parking and an assault on a city officer who was just doing the job we pay her to do. |

Another complete generalization. I suggest you take a course in creative thinking. Maybe your next post might show a glimmer of intelligence. You weren't there, alright; so case closed! |

By chance did you even bother to read the article before commenting? "A SR man, angry over getting a ticket for illegally parking in a handicapped space, ripped it up & drove his car at a parking officer. The driver stopped within inches of hitting the golf cart-like buggy. According to the victim & an independent witness, he got within inches. He rapidly accelerated, aiming the car at her, then came to a stop just before colliding with her. Witnesses heard him screaming at her, yelling at her, profanities. After he threw the ticket at her, Sala got back into her vehicle & headed onto Silva Avenue & began calling police. She did the right thing, backed away from him. She wasn't expecting him to drive at her. She was calling as it happened.” People like you (who file frivolous lawsuits & make trumped up claims against LE) are one of the reasons why cities have to spend (READ: WASTE) thousands & thousands of taxpayer dollars (like the $15k Petaluma just spent in the GPS/radar gun case). _________________________ Stand up for what you believe in.......even if you have to stand alone. |

You couldn't have said it better. YEs, CASE CLOSED for simple minded people LIKE YOU! Were YOU THERE? NO then ok go back the hole you crawled out from ok? Learn law before flapping your lips. |

ARE YOU OFF YOUR MEDS AGAIN? |

Certainly I wasn't there, and I don't have to "learn the law" to point out your lack of reasoning. You admitted that you were not there, yet you went ahead and blithely assumed it was the meter-reader's fault that this nutcase virtually attacked her. You might want to consider a course in creative thinking. Did you re-read your original post point-by-point? You immediately assumed that all meter readers are rude and at fault, without presenting proof or any examples. Does this not show a lack of reasoning, and is it not a perfect example of the fallacy of generalization? It is a shame that you had to attack me personally; I'm a big boy and can take it, but I sure hate to see examples of fuzzy thinking as illustrated in your original post, and would have much preferred if you had stated just why you thought I was wrong in what I said. Sorry if you can't see my point, but as comedian Ron White has pointed out: "You can't fix Stupid." |
