These parking enforcers can suck an egg.

They can suck an egg for upholding the law? Last time I checked, the overwhelming majority of police officers, parking enforcers, meter maids, etc., are decent, hard-working citizens. They don't spend their time running around looking for opportunities to pin false accusations in order to fund their pension plan. This woman apparently failed to pay for her parking spot and they're treating her like they would anyone else. That's the way a civil society functions.

The police put their lives on the line every day to keep our communities safe. Rather than show appreciation for all they do, I just hear accusations of trumped-up charges, racist profiling, etc. There are no criminals in our society; only bad cops accusing innocent people of crimes.

Just one more sign of a society on the verge of destruction.
