If the parking was obstructing something else you can report it to enforcement for towing/ticketing or the owners of the lot.

Let's say this was a public place. Now you need to go through all the bureaucracy to contact the relevant law enforcer. There's a good chance they won't fucking care, even if parking the car that way violates some law. Or alternatively there might be no law in place (even if there should be one), so there's genuinely nothing you can do.

Now let's say this was a privately owned place, like the parking lot of a supermarket. Do you genuinely think the owners care if their "esteemed customer" Karen's car gets in the way of "some fucking cripples"? (Note: this sort of arsehole really, really likes to park their cars in spots for people with disabilities. Or often half of their car.)

In either case: congrats for wasting your time and solving jack shit!

And in both cases you're relying on some higher up to do shit, when it's actually more civil to tell the owner they're doing shit wrong. As in, you know... leaving some message.

If it was not obstructing something else

i don't reasonably expect someone to reach for pen and paper to leave a message in this case.

I read this reply as nothing but ego and lots of assumptions (shooting my brains out, wtf?)

If that's the case you should at least try to develop basic reading comprehension.

I was clearly listing possible ways to handle this, and the possible outcomes. No, the odds the car owner is a violent piece of shit are not zero; waiting for them to say tête-à-tête "don't do this, please" is not reasonable. And this is fucking obvious dammit.

I also genuinely think you don't know what "ego" and "assumption" mean, otherwise you wouldn't use either here. Just like you don't know what "passive aggressivity" means.
