Boston Globe - An Everett man is facing charges after he allegedly pulled a gun on a Cambridge parking control officer who had given him a ticket. Fritzner Bellevue, 27, of Everett was illegally parked on Magazine Street when the officer approached his vehicle, Cambridge police spokesman Dan Riviello said. Bellevue was inside the vehicle and the officer told him to move his vehicle or he would be issued a ticket. An argument ensued, and the officer continued his patrol. The officer returned shortly after the encounter and found Bellevue’s vehicle unattended and still illegally parked, and issued him a ticket. As the officer continued his patrol, he allegedly saw Bellevue’s vehicle drive by with the side window down. Bellevue revealed a handgun, Riviello said. “The operator allegedly held up a handgun and waved it at him and threatened him,” he said.
I'm not saying pulling a gun on the guy was the way to go here, but I’m not all that shocked or upset that this guy let the meter man have it a little bit. There is no job less respectable than the job of meter maid. A hired douche from city hall who couldn’t get a real job in security or law enforcement, spending your days trolling around with little pads of orange paper, inevitably crusing around town in clown sized cars or hoofing it in your fake police officer uniform.
And no one, I mean no one, has let such a little amount of power get so much to their head. These guys have the ultimate napoleon complex. Hey guy, would it kill you to give me a break if I’m sitting in the car, or if you catch me wakling back like 3.5 minutes after the meter expired. Your job isn’t that important, just rip the ticket up and go on with your day. Your life may suck but it doesn’t have to be miserable getting yelled at and taunted with guns all day. Just rip up a ticket or be a normal human being once in a while and everything would be cool. Pricks.
