Here's an idea. Instead of deleting posts, how about getting rid of the "Comments" and creating a forum where one would have to register and could air their gripes without worrying about being deleted.

I think the posts that get deleted are the ones that stray from the purpose of this site... which is to eliminate improper parking by civil servants so as to make the streets safer for vehicular and pedestrian traffic.

If the post is excessively rude, cop bashing, liberal bashing, name throwing or just blatantly off topic it doesn't belong.

Excellent shot--really demonstrates the point of this site.

Frank Serpico,
Forum's being built. We'll have it for you soon.

Good to know that there is a comments section for viewers to post but when they dont agree with the overall premise of the site the post gets deleted. Why even open it up to discussion?

#5 You are incorrect in saying that such posts get deleted. If you look around the site, you'll see many posts that disagree with the the premise.

has the person who snapped this photo knocked on the firehouse door?

#7, this is obviously a systematic problem. Many of the people who post on this site have gotten tired after years of knocking on firehouse and precinct doors. Now we're taking it to the next level.

#8, if you read the comments on this site, you will see that the "libs" are taking these pictures in the face of all kinds of veiled threats from law enforcement, while the law enforcement commenters are frightened that the posts will enable retaliation against them.

But it's a free country, you can make whatever unfounded generalizations you want.

taking it to the next level sounds great,what exactly could the outcome be? every government agency on the same page with parking? i believe you have better chances of hitting lotto. are you telling me you went to the mayors office with this issue and got no response?

LOL NEXT TIME I WORK IN THIS HOUSE I WILL PARK ON THE SIDEWALK... TELL THE LADY WHO PARKS IN THE FIREZONE WITH A POLICE PASS TO MOVE AND WE WOULDNT HAVE TO PARK ON THE SIDEWALK

Taking it to the next level means focusing enough public attention on the problem that the City has to deal wth it. It means making NYPD POV stay out of NYPD-owned vehicle spaces, making NYPD respect FDNY spaces, making FDNY respect NYPD spaces, and making all placard abusers respect the communities they are serving by not parking on sidewalks, bus stops, crosswalksand parklands. It may mean a parking cash-out for civ servs, residents giving up spaces, and paying more taxes. We'll see.

There will not be a parking cash-out for civil servants... no way the city would agree to that w/o the civil servants agreeing to a giveback in whatever contract is being negotiated.

I'd hate to see residents giving up parking spaces... there are few enough as is in Manhattan.

I'd hate to see residents giving up parking spaces as well, so why not have resident parking? It seems like more civil cities such as Boston and Philly have it.
