Does it surprise you that the author of the piece in question is Eugene Kane of the Journal Sentinel? Of course not.

He laments for those who violate winter parking regulations. He admits parking illegally, but then cries that he’s a victim of the naughty towing companies who make money off towing.

Wanna bet that if the parking regulations weren’t enforced and the snow wasn’t being removed fast enough in spite of thousands of cars in the way, Eugene would find some victims of that debacle instead?
