He was once arrested for refusing to leave his automobile
which was being towed. He was sued for false arrest -- and lost.


He sued for false-arrest, and lost.



Mr. Bibuld got his refund and ticket without providing his ID, though the
cops confiscated it. That's fine. Bibuld held to the point at issue.


No. The point at issue was "where is it written...?", and to this day, Mr.
Bibuld does not know where, or why.
He only knows that this will get him some attention, and if he does not
"improve" [i.e. change] his attitude, some jail time as well. I think it was
already explained here why such records must be maintained of cash refunds,
just as with rebates -- to discourage abuse.



This was Bibuld at His Best.


At his worst, rather. At his best, Mr. Bibuld can thrash the United States
of Uhhmuricuuh with the best of them. Bibuld is quite good when it comes to
ranting and raving about racism, and other pet peeves. But this, this was
merely a copycat re-run of Fischer's Passadena jailhouse incident, and nowhere
near as entertaining. And Fischer was approached by the police, without first
doing anything stupid. Mr. Bibuld was creating a (miniscule) public
disturbance, by obstinately blocking a ticket window. His conduct was
(slightly) disorderly, in that he refused to get out of the way so that other
customers could be served. If Larry Evans had been next in line, we would have
seen a five-thousand-word rant from Larry Parr, assasinating Mr. Bibuld's
character, soon followed by a book!

It is safe to say that Larry Parr is tickled-pink by Mr. Bibuld's latest
adventure, merely because he agreed with some of what Mr. Parr has been writing
of late, about our constitutional rights being trampled by a BIG government,
which needs shrinking down to size.
But here the failure was not with the government, nor the police department
-- it was a failure by the ticket counterperson and his boss, to politely
explain why they needed to see Mr. Bibuld's ID in order to comply with his
request. "Where is it written? Show me." "No -- go away." If Mr. Bibuld
had been a "secret shopper," they would both have been in hot water. And if he
had a gun....?
