The cop should have shot Zigrat first and asked questions later. How do we know he's not a Terrorist? If you aren't with us then you must be against us.

Clinton had sex with an intern. He is a national disgrace.

Have we ever tried to reason with illegal parkers and find out why they hate America so much they ignore our parking laws? I think we need to try to understand them.
-Sandman

I say Zigrat was the constable armed? How big was his gun? What color was it? Our police rarely carry guns because guns are banned in England and we're better off for it. Tootle-pip.

The reason we can't park at the airport is because the French support terrorism and hate the USA. The French suck. And so do the Russians and the Germans. And all the nationalities who aren't white.
-Rude

I never get parking tickets at the Airport because my BMW is so sleek it looks like it's moving even when it's parked. That and the parking police all love me. Everybody loves me.I'm perfect. I love my BMW.

Dripsnore, I wouldn't feed you the peanuts out of my poop if you were starving to death. I hope your wife gives you a dose of the clap.

I was getting stoned at the airport once and when the cop gave me the ticket I offered him a hit off the joint. He took all my pot and gave me another ticket.
-Midnight Target

Gotta clean the soda off the monitor which spewed forth from my nose now Airhead... Thanks, you're a pal! Funny stuff... LOL

Fight the POWER!!!

Get em Zig. I got a parking ticket one night and fought it. It was only $10 but I was not guilty. It took me about 4 or 5 months to clear up and 3 trips to downtown on my off time, but I won.

Question Zig, was the cop black? It does have a bearing, you being a skinny white yankee kid in the south.

I wasn't aware the police issued parking tickets for bicycles, Lizard. Hey, I'm glad you got it overturned- after all, what's three trips to a courthouse and four or five months' worth of aggrevation when it's weighed against the violation of your civil rights? One small victory for you, but proof our Constitution works. WTG bud, keep the police honest.

Ahh, it's all so clear now....

Zig, remember this....when looking for a lady to marry, pick one who's brother is an attorney.........stuff like this is no problem.

Until then, pay the ticket.........and don't make the same play twice. The time you are going to take fighting this will be insane.

Btw, I got a lawyer for a brother-in-law, plus my sister-in-law is a Judge. Thanksgiving dinner is too much fun! Their Dad is a Minister.........it's like a episode of SOAP! WAAAAAAAAA!!

Strange- in Washington, DC there's parking signs with restrictions stated on them all over the place.

No Parking Or Standing: Means, you can't stand (sit in the car with the engine running) or park (turn off the engine and leave your car).

No Parking: You can not leave your vehicle.

But never a "No Standing" sign.

People sit in their cars with the engines running in "No Parking" zones all the time, cops and meter maids leave them alone. But if they do the same in a "No Parking or Standing" zone, they'll get ticketed.

I mean, if sitting in your vehicle with the engine running is considered parking... then what the hell do they need "No Standing" signs for??

seawulf this is exactly the logic i was operating under.. it didnt say no stopping or standing. if parking stopping and standing all mean the same thing then why are there three seperate types of signs??? still i figured out parking downtown costs 4 bucks a pop in the lots plus hours of my time, i will just pay it. i think it is a crime in itself how they make it so difficult to defend yourself so you just give in because it isnt worth your time to fight. it should be possible to challenge via mail or phone imo.

liz: yes the cop was black but i doubt this means anything. i have black friends and think this guy just probably had an inferiority complex about being a 35 year old cop stuck giving out parking tickets.
