 Again, I'd have to believe you for sour grapes, and I don't believe 
 you.

 Apples and oranges here.  You're changing topic to strengthen your 
 pitiful and nonsensical argument.

 Apples and oranges, again.  Slashing tires is illegal; towing an 
 illegally parked car is not.  If you felt it was illegal, you would've 
 gone to the courts to settle the matter. 
  
 Either way, you claim this matter has been resolved.  This, 
 fortunately, means that you won't be posting your nonsense again.
