Call the police non-emergency number and report someone in a handicapped parking spot that doesn't have a hanger or tag. Look for Tow Truck numbers posted in the parking lot.
Hit them where it hurts. Their pocketbook, and having to figure out where their car is, how to get there, how to pay, etc... Don't use illegal means when legal means are readily available, willing, and waiting.
Take a picture, and complain to the internet? IT's simpler to take care of legally. Then post a pic of a cop writing them a ticket, or a tow truck hauling them away on the internet.
* Results vary by location. Try that in my town and the cops will chew you out for "wasting their time," and tacitly threaten you with arrest to try to prevent you from calling again.
Then we get whinging about why people do these sorts of things as if there are no consequences. Well, it turns out there are no consequences. Once again, this is why we can't have nice things.
if the police don't do anything then talk to the mayor. You can also talk to the state legislator.
Not about the parking spot, but about the police refusing to do their job.
Is the system that corrupt there that you wouldn't get a windfall for being wrongfully arrested for reporting a crime?
About 25 years ago, I was a retail manager and took great pleasure in having these assholes towed. We had the towing company on speed dial, they loved us. I wasn't disabled then but it's just a shitty thing to do so it ticked me off.
Today I just alerted store management, who was pretty pissed off about them. I approved. As much as I'd have loved to do what you suggested, I only had a few minutes before I had to leave.
🤡 this is you right now
He's just upset because I called him out for being a douchebag in another post. So he proved my point by downvoting a bunch of my post history and leaving shitty comments on a few of them. It's pretty sad.
Oof, homeboy is chronically online too. Took a curious scroll through his comment history and he averages at least 50 a day. I can’t imagine a healthy psyche behind that keyboard.
Is it? Why, because they're obviously making up a story and you can't see it?
What is so obviously made up about this story, the part where they worked in retail, or the part where they had illegally parked cars towed? Maybe it was the part where a third party was also upset about the illegally parked cars, much like everyone in this thread? All seems pretty vanilla to me.
How often do you alert store management over a parking space?
This karen is obviously making up stories.
It isn't some herculean task unless you have bad social anxiety. Mentioning it at the customer service desk as you walk in to do your shopping is probably less effort than taking a picture and posting it here.
I have several times in my life. It's not hard to speak up when you aren't a gaping pussy.
You really aren't shitposting are you. You really find it hard to believe people would act when they see things like this, don't you?
Standing up for disabled people is being a Karen? But more importantly... If you believe it why did you start this out by calling bullshit on people saying they did things about this?
Start with why you think it's being a Karen to make sure parking spots for the disabled stay only for the disabled. I'd like to hear in detail that opinion of yours. Then we can move on to the inconsistencies in your story.
so....now its back to it never happening?
Lmao, which one is it, that it didn't happen or that they're being a Karen by calling towing companies for people illegally parked in handicap spots?
So is the story believable or not?
You’re literally just being a pissant, kindly go fuck yourself.
Have you really never seen someone illegally parked in a handicapped space get towed? Are you a shut-in?
I mean, if someone did this to me in Minecraft, I would be highly tempted to remove their trailer hitch, and put it though their back window for them. Building a window in Minecraft takes a while. Got to mine the ore and such.
