Scott Hechinger And tow lots tend to be in poor areas... And tow companies get $x per car... And poor people often have no off street parking... Spend a day at the impound lot day after a tow event, see the desperation of the people, for many $400 is an entire week of pay. Eat or car? Terrible.


Justice Delayed is Justice Denied Scott Hechinger I know that feeling. Many years as a single mother hanging on by a thread. You try to plan for an emergency, but one series of unfortunate events is disaster. It's difficult to hang on to it get your self-confidence back. It can impact you for years.

Laura Hinz Justice Delayed is Justice Denied Scott Hechinger Holding my two week old baby in my arms with the car seat next to me on the sidewalk of the clinic where we'd just gotten her newborn vaxxinations watching them tow my car away from in front of a broken meter for unpaid parking tickets. Never managed to get that car back.





Just as our system should not require people to buy their freedom back from the government in the form of bail, we must roust out ways in which our bureaucracies and laws cause massive harm to people because of their means. From our Advocate Addie Gilson partnersforjustice.org/blog-stories/t…






Anyone who truly cares about the safety of other humans and of our communities and of all the animals and plants should be more focused on the crimes of the powerful that police don’t record, and on myriad threats to safety that elites don't call "crimes." currentaffairs.org/2020/08/why-cr…
