That’s interesting. All the city parking people I’ve dealt with here in Los Angeles have been quite nice and generally helpful.
Have you considered parking legally?
Do you think garbagemen want to pick up garbage?
Right. It won’t be nerds that know all the stats and obscure players. Not at all. That will be all the cool dudes. You, for instance.
I do have an explanation, and it’s racist to assume that a skinny kid in the middle of the street wearing a cross country uniform is trying to steal your wife and her purse. That is a perfectly reasonable conclusion to come to. You can’t even come up with another conclusion.

A white man got out of his car to assault a skinny black kid wearing the clear uniform of a runner because he thought the black kid was going to steal his wife’S purse and kidnap her.

After ordering a few of us went outside to toss the ball for a few minutes in the parking lot. A few minutes into tossing the ball we heard a loud tapping on a window near…
Look, how are you going to stand your ground if you’re sitting in a car?
Okay, cool. The treatment of women and minorities in fiction is not worth talking about and is never emblematic of larger issues in the real world. Art should never be scrutinized for what it might tell us about the world we live in.
