Be a jackass and expect the same back to you. I still think it's silly but it's the same as getting pulled over by a cop. I'm always nice and respectful. It will sometimes result in the cop not giving you a ticket. Now, be a jerk and kick/scream, he'll usually write you up for anything/everything he can, no matter how silly the infractions are. I believe in karma and this was a direct kick in the nuts by karma.

Anyone else get the feeling that this cop may have a dislike for electric cars with entitled drivers? Im guessing the extra "stick it to him" result may be a reflection of his feelings.

i think he should just have to pay for it. bottom line is theft is theft and the outlets are sitting their marked for charging your car.

Wow I am appalled at the reaction I am seeing here. So much for freedom and liberty.


Edit: My bad didn't see that it was a real drivable car. I assumed that it was a small electric RC type car.
What a dumass! I still think an arrest was a little excesive though.

Since when does freedom and liberty include stealing and trespassing?

I'm going to go to DIA tonight after work and turn myself in to the police. I have to admit I plugged my laptop into a wall outlet earlier this year for about 45 minutes without without permission.

I'm trying to think of all the times I've caught passengers at the airport plugging their phones in at our gate podiums. As annoying as it was, I never felt the need to call the authorities. Or even worse the ones who find the vacuum outlets on the jet and plug their stuff in....a definite no no. We just tell them to unplug it.

Thank goodness this crime spree is over.

Dude is a complete tool and deserved what he got. They should have also charged him with criminal trespass.
