German Parking Garage Unveils Dedicated Spaces For LGBTQ And Migrant Drivers
Nation & State | 10-7-2021The three “diversity” parking spaces were put up in an underground car park in Hanau city centre, according to the Daily Mail.
The aim of the spots was to “help people who feel a special need for protection,” according to Thomas Morlock, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of the lot.
Morlock told the Daily Mail the spaces were built to set a “conspicuously colourful symbol for diversity and tolerance”.
He said they “are not necessarily meant” to be used by a “separate group of people”.
And of course, as the Daily Mail puts it, the kicker:
“It is not immediately clear how the authorities intend to monitor whether people who park in the spaces are in fact part of the LGBTQ community or migrants…”
Straight Line of the Day: A German parking garage has dedicated spaces for LGBTQ and migrant drivers. This will help because…
…the first step in identifying as a woman is driving like one and many immigrants are Asian. You don’t want either parking near your Mercedes.
I’ll see myself out.
It will ease the transition to the new fascist regime.
Pink triangles are due their perks.
…because all those crazy handicapped drivers with their handicapped emblems everywhere lives just don’t matter anymore.
…their need for protection will be met because who would ever look for them in those places.
…had Morlock gone directly to dedicated spots for Eloi it would have been recognized as a trap.
… culture wars are best fought out of sight of the hoi polloi…
… wait a minute – you can’t park electric vehicles underground in parking garages – what are you saying about the upward mobility of LGBTQ and migrant people? Huh? HUH??
… is that reserved parking? Most of the LGBTQ people I see in the media are in no way reserved…
Migrant workers need to learn the alphabet.
OMG-WTF-BBQ!
Restricts keeping the car bombings confined to one area.
Keeps the trip to the roof a lot quicker.
LGBTQM is still deprived of a vowel.
That’s what IMAO said at first but realized the mistake and quickly bought 3 vowels.
…I don’t live in Germany… ’nuff said.
If one displays a “Let’s Get Biden To Quit” bumper sticker, does that count as LGBTQ for the preferred parking spots?
As long as you clarify the B doesn’t stand for Basil….or Basil.
Sounds like a T-shirt “Win” anyway.
This would be brilliant.
“I’m pro LGBTQ*
*Let’s Get Biden To Quit.”
$$$$$$$$$$$$!
…other than “bent over” most migrants aren’t to picky about sexual orientation.
Parking their own vehicles? Don’t they want to be Deutschland Uber allies?
The marked spaces are “not necessarily meant” to be used by a “separate group of people”??
OK…….. I was going to ask about this, but . . . .
“I’ll Bite” Macht Frei.
Thus proving that Hitler’s body really was burnt to ashes; otherwise the spinning from his grave would affect the Earth’s rotation.
Let’s see — Prius, Prius, Prius, Prius, Prius, stolen, stolen, stolen . . . Did we really need the labels to mark these spaces?
Let’s see: no one using the nearby restrooms as they were intended . . . Did we really need the labels to mark these spaces?
On the ninth floor? No wonder Jersey Guy took a swan dive into someone’s Beemer!
Hanau you know the rest of the story.
Off-topic: There are some parking garages that are a series of level floors, which you access via ramps. There are others that are composed entirely of ramps, on which people park on an incline. I wonder whether any studies have been done to determine which is better. And what metric would be used to define “better.”
And only motorcycles fit comfortably into parking garage spaces.
I feel your pain. Luckily the Biden Infrastructure Bill has allocated 200 billion dollars to solve this dilemma.
..then it’s on to those pesky pot holes my friend.
This will help because the LGBTQ and Migrant Drivers certainly must not be mis-identified as members of the average parking public.
It seems to me that expats from, say, the US would count as migrants. Such a deal. Of course under the rules we all seem to now live under, you can’t question anyone parking in one of those spaces, particularly if they say they are “questioning.” Generally my question is, where am I going to park? Good enough!
Sounds to me like it’s a diversion of some sort…like maybe a tollbooth in the middle of the desert or something.
