What is Robin Hooding? It is a form of activism where activists try to prevent people from having their money taken from them by paying an expired meter before a parking enforcement officer can write a ticket on the expired meter. Like Robin Hood, these activists are standing up against an oppressive government tax.
If your local area has meters that you can pay, robin hooding is a very easy to start up form of activism that is effective, affordable, and popular.
It’s always a great day when I get to go out and robin hood. It’s even better when I get to help people not have their money taken and get thanked for it.
Here are some recent positive interactions I’ve had with the good people of Keene while trying to save them from the parking tariff.
More entertaining media from Robin Hooding has been released to the youtube channel Light Speed Liberty. This fun video is structured off of the original Nintendo Super Mario Bros game, featuring the protagonist videographer and a second player competing against the Keene parking enforcer for saves and tickets.
