The city of Keene says its three parking inspectors have been taunted, insulted and followed by the group — to the point that one of them says he has suffered heart palpitations and is thinking about quitting his job.
In case its not clear from the headline (its not) they are being sued for harassing the parking inspectors, not simply putting money in meters. If they were just wandering around feeding meters, they would probably have been left alone.
- dylangs1030 13y agoThanks for noting this. I think it's still technically illegal to put money in meters, but you're right. It amounts to a teenage prank. They probably shouldn't have harassed people and tried to be "activists."
- fixxer 13y ago"Linda, guess what you’re not going to do today — write tickets." That isn't harassment. That is hilarious. This just boils down to a municipality relying on parking tickets rather than meter fees for revenue. Fuck them. The solution is simple: raise the fee.
- vonzeppelin 13y agoThey are being sued for harassment but being sued does not automatically mean you are guilty. Why, as suggested in the article by one of the defendants, have they not been criminally prosecuted for harassment if it is cut and dry?
- bobberb 13y agoThere is no proof of harassment so far. Even if it were true that is a case against individuals not an amorphous group.
