Totally true. Thanks for clarifying that.

I stand corrected. Call the cops then. I'm sure you'll hear the sirens within 2-3 minutes.

Don't see the issue here. They may get a ticket, but YOU have nothing to do with this, any more than if they parked in front of your house with expired plates.

Give me 10 minutes and I'll find the municipal code that says you have to be something like 3 feet from a driveway.

Westminster's traffic enforcement is all done by civilian employees... Unless there's an accident they're already on, they would be here in less than 10.

I'm not going to call anyone. It's just frustrating when people show such a blatant disregard for someone else's space. I'm sure you'd all be pissed too if it constantly happened to you.

No they're not... lol Just because that's the only way to do it doesn't mean it's legal... I love ya, Irving, but that's just silly talk.

I love you too, Scott, but you're also being silly.

Go put a flaming bag of dog poo on their front porch.
