John Skipper parks car in dangerous spot, refuses to move after warning

The following is an email from NorthIowaToday.com Publisher Matt Marquardt to Globe Gazette reporter and bully John Skipper, who flagrantly flaunted the rules Saturday morning and parked his car in a potentially dangerous place, just so he could fill his face with grub and not walk very far to do it. Two NIT subscribers saw Skipper do the deed and warned him about where he was parked, and Skipper refused to move the car.

John Skipper seems to do as he pleases in Mason City - and gets way with it.

subject: above the law/rules?

Mr. John Skipper,

I understand you and a driver parked your car in a no parking zone today, in a busy, full parking lot here in Mason City.

Do you feel that rules do not pertain to you, even after two Mason City residents warned you that your car was in a dangerous place, potentially subjecting other drivers to auto accidents and obscuring their vision as they navigate this area? Were you aware when you parked your car, that you hoarded valuable space in front of the Mercy Urgent Care Center? As a public figure who regularly pontificates “right and wrong”, is it silly for your few readers to expect you to obey the rules and/or laws in our community? Mr. Skipper, do you feel yourself to be “special” or entitled in some way?

Any quote you would like to respond with on this developing story would be welcomed.

PS: You have written in support of the Mason City Blue Zone. What part of the Pies N More cafe menu that you ate off of this morning is “Blue Zone friendly”, or were those stories just more hot air coming out of your mouth to support the agendas of your cronies?

Attached is proof – a photo – of your deed Saturday morning.
