I browse the comment section and all i see ia regular discussion. With no flame whatsoever. And a moderator who censored my experience and offended not only me but everyone who would like to share theirs. I still didnt get an apology for it.

One time many years ago, as a much younger man, I received a parking fine for parking too long in a time-limited spot outside my home, having not bothered to organise a residents' permit. Irate, I took it "all the way to city hall" to contest the fine on the grounds of injustice and superfluousness. On meeting the municipal officials in the arbitration room, I protested "I don't understand why you need to issue tickets in that street; there's always plenty of parking available". They looked back at me as the naive young fool that I was and explained: "Do you know why there's always parking available for you? It's because we enforce the rules." Duly chastened, I paid the fine, got a permit, and received no further penalties. And for the subsequent three years I lived at that house, there continued to be plenty of parking available.
