All hail Houston's busybody brigade
The Chronicle's Robert Crowe can't heap enough praise on the Houstonians who are writing parking tickets as part of the Municipal Volunteer Parking Program.
While we certainly appreciate the city's concern for making sure ineligible drivers aren't occupying handicapped parking spaces, we can't help but wonder why the city has to rely on "volunteers" to take care of city services like traffic/parking enforcement.
A city that has millions of dollars to spend on Tasers shouldn't have to depend on mostly unaccountable busybodies plucked off the street and given four hours of training for what should be basic city services.
