See shit like this makes me so grateful I live in Australia,
She’s too young to park a car!
Imagine how fucking stupid you have to be to think you should get into an argument over parking space. Add then escalate it into a gunfight, where you’re so fucking bad at shooting, you kill and hurt anything but the guy you’re trying to kill. Over parking.
Fucking morons.
I guess she would be alive if, she had a gun?
We’ve killed children for less. I hate this country.
I always heard that in the US they have hundreds of parking spaces per lot. How is it possible that there are so many parking dispute?
Fortunately some cities are removing street parking to install safer bike lanes and/or decrease car infrastructure.
It has to be the spot closest to the exit.
Also, some people take up multiple spots. If there weren’t enough spots for everyone, anyone who took more than one should be charged equally with the shooters, for contributing to the situation.
We need a new slur that doesn’t apply to anyone except morons who think this way.
Those of us who get around on two wheels might call them ‘cagers’.
It very much depends.
In a densely populous city, you can’t fit that many spaces along a street. Price can be a factor too, since street parking will (in many cases) cost drastically less than a parking deck or lot.
This is in stark contrast with a suburban area that hinges on more rural, where you might see hundreds of empty spaces at any random time outside of a series of retail spaces, like a Lowes + Target + Old Navy + Shoprite or whatever. At some points (say Sunday morning grocery shopping), that Shoprite lot will be full, and so would the neighboring sections in front of the other stores, even though they are all going to Shoprite for groceries. Then you’ll see people waste time going up and down lanes trying to find a spot thats a whole 20ft closer to the store, because who knows why, rather than park in the next lane over which is in front of another store.
That said, what happened here IMO has way less to do with cars and a lot more to do with the problems of this capitalist society, with wedges driving communities apart, pervasive pathological narcissism, a complete disregard for human life, etc., that has been pushed for so long.

Even when I regularly drove a car, I never understood this. I’ve always just parked in the back of the lot and walked. It’s like… 50-100 feet further. A whole thirty extra seconds of walking maybe.
