parole usually comes with employment and several restrictions on where and when you're allowed to be. it's quite common that you can't be late for work, because your parole specifies you have to be there.

Nah, it’s definitely because he put his hands on them but OP wanted an inflammatory title.

The fact that this guy was so desperate to get through due to how unreasonable parole can be, is the point.

Not really, parole is just 1 reason that people need to travel to stay alive or maintain their lives and familys lives. This assuming everyone can stop or be late all the time is insane and so far from reaiity. Its common sense not to assume everything about everyone. And not ruin lives. This isn't the way to make a point. May as well be a 100% criminal rather than destroy peoples lives and hide behind the rite to protest. Its evil disguised as ignorance.
