In 2021 I posted a Louisiana attorney’s video about traffic stops, consent to search, and reasonable duration. I had stumbled onto that video, but for many years there is such a mountain of video revealing the extremes of police self-entitlment (as one former federal prosecutor and a Texas lawyer continually discuss). Not too long ago I observed this parking sign at a national retailer.
Isn’t this symptomatic of the problem? Police are supposed to be public servants, not special citizens. They already invent parking for their vehicles wherever suits them. Erecting signage for preferential parking validates the sense of entitlement. So I parked in that space because a public servant should be happy to defer to the public!

Is it reserved for on-duty? Otherwise I agree. They’re not any more important than we are. Except they are armed where we are not allowed to be.
