Really?! Are we now celebrating breaking the law. Similar devices are used here, but usually for people who have massive numbers of unpaid parking tickets. Do you recommend that someone cut off these things here in the USA?
Personally, illegal parking ticks me off. Too many times, I've needed to access a loading zone for the purpose for which it is intended, but cannot due to some yahoo parking there illegally. Similarly, having my car blocked by a double-parked vehicle is annoying as the dickens. My sense of humor doesn't extend to laughing when I can't get out of a parking place for this reason.
Obey the law and you'll never have one of these devices attached to your car. I guarantee it. It's pretty simple, seems to me.

If the cops REALLY want to stop illegal parking just give the owners a hockey puck filled with thermite. Tape it to the hood of the offending vehicle and light.
Be sure to post the notice in the parking spaces. Have that happen several dozen times around the city and people will stop doing it.

The funniest scene in "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels" was when they beat the sh!te out of the parking enforcement guy...

The worship of the law, any law, no matter how unjust, is not an American attitude. Some laws need breakin'.

And Angle Grinder Man offers his "free clamp-removal service" to "all good, decent law-unabiding people" who would rather fight back than pay to have their cars released. How, pray tell, does he determine the good from the repeat scum-sucking offenders? Also, they can't catch a guy in this get up? Sheesh...

I havea problem with metered parking and the ticketing of vehicles on most public college campuses, but other than that, I pretty much agree with you about the illegal parking problem.

"Chiiiiiiiill Winnn-ston!" Lot of good scenes in that flick. Like the drugged out chic getting up with the machine gun and hosing down the place...
To: MineralMan
Is there anything that doesn't offend you???!!!
To: Old Professer
"Is there anything that doesn't offend you???!!!"
Sure, lots of things. Good folks who are good neighbors never offend me. Law-abiding citizens never offend me.
