I'm not defending anyone. It's my belief that everyone is entitled to voice their own opinion.

Also, the companies that have contracts with them like them because they get the job done. If you had someone parking in your spot that was not permitted, would you want that person towed? What if it was covered parking and you had $150 worth of groceries in your car and now you can't park in your designated spot because someone else did.

As long as there is a need for the job, it will still exist.

Not sure the point of your post. Nobody here is claiming that towing companies shouldn't exist, just talking about Riverside's terrible practices.

I live in my own house in NOLA nowadays but when I lived in BR and attended LSU, I lived in an apartment building that was family owned and the old lady who was my landlord (who I knew well after living there for several years) specifically did not have a contract with towing companies because of previous shite that had gone down between them and her tenants. My only real problem was that on LSU gamedays I could not leave my apartment unless I wasn't coming back until hours after the game, because there'd be no place to park. It was a problem that the tenants complained about, but she asked our input and in the end we agreed in the end to not hire a towing company.
