Posted on January 5, 2011 at 5:39amServes him right for letting a murderous young Gangster loose from prison, on an lesser amount of time he has to be in Prison. His father was part posse of his lobby pack who was for going green. Nice to have friends in high places. Wonder what he would do if it was his Son who was Murdered. I pray for the Murdered Young man and his family and the others who were stabbed. And by the way the other Gang members are still serving their full terms. Way to leave your Goverment position. Another idiot who will probly end up with a job at the white house.

Posted on January 5, 2011 at 4:39amDoesn’t matter. Tickets are just extra taxes for those of us who don’t have friends who will make them vanish without a trace. This is essentially just a waste of paper.

Posted on January 5, 2011 at 1:19amHe is a multimillionaire, he could park there for a week and not care about the ticket price. They could fine him $10,000 It would be like you or me getting a ticket for $.01, that’s the kind of money he has.

Posted on January 5, 2011 at 9:30amGezz !! one time I parked in a 5min loading zone for 20 mins over ( I didn’t expect it to happen but was held up) and when I returned my car was gone…lol I had to walk 5 miles to go get it out of impound and there STILL was a ticket on my windshield … Should’ve just parked legally at the meter, put the quarters in and walked in the first place, It was only 3 blocks.. Hard lesson but I learned…

Posted on January 5, 2011 at 12:54amOh Arnie did you think that abusing a five minute parking space for several hours would be ok just because you were once the govenor? You are probably right, and you will get out of the ticket and no one will care or know the difference. Ahh, to be famous and above the low-life citizens that put you in office. Life is good for the terminator, screw the rest of us.

As a politician you are still a civilian, and answerable to the laws.

Posted on January 5, 2011 at 5:28amAs a politician Arnold was probably at times above the law, but as a civilian he has to obey the law just like the rest of us “smucks”. The policeman that ticketed his Mercedes really didn’t have much of a choice since Arnold was parked ILLEGALLY in a FIVE minute loading zone for THREE hours. If I was parked illegally, I wouldn’t be surprised if upon returning to my vehicle I found a ticket on my windshield. Would you ?

“Three hours in a five minute passenger loading zone? Talk about a spoiled ass. I thought he liked to exercise. He could have walked like the rest of us do.”
He hasn’t seriously exercised for at least a decade. He looks terrible now. I know, I go to the Arnold Fitness Classic every year here in Columbus Ohio where he routinely shows up and walks about. He now looks like a giant head on an emaciated flabby body, has for years.
And yes, he has a huge sense of self worth and entitlement. Some of it earned mind you, the guy did climb up the ladder from relatively nothing into international stardom.

Posted on January 5, 2011 at 11:36amNo! I love it! I live here and its out of control. In one certain LA community they past a law that you must register your bicycle $3. If you are found with no registration then it is a $400 fine. Next DUI while biking. He deserves a ticket for the way he didn’t handle things in my state.
