I like to go to http://freekeene.com/ from time to time and see people aggressively holding the police and other public figures accountable with respect upholding citizens' rights to film in public. On occasion they go too far but that's the nature of activism sometimes.

This here though, feeding parking meters? No crime here, and if there were one it would be victimless. If they're harassing the meter readers, they need to stop it and just feed the meters. No sense in being a jerk when you don't have to be.
