Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
And people wonder why I was so upset about it.
This shit happens all the fucking time.... Notice the position of the rear tire.... If they weren't parked at a 45° angle they'd be about a foot into my driveway. Never mind the fact they're blocking two mailboxes.
Where the fuck has common courtesy for your fellow man gone?

Other than being away from the curb, it's legal...
This picture genuinely angers me. You park in front of your host's house, without blocking the driveway, mailbox, or any fire hydrants. How hard is that?
No its not.
Give me 10 minutes and I'll find the municipal code that says you have to be something like 3 feet from a driveway.

Does it piss you off that your neighbor in the silver jeep is blocking the sidewalk?
