Report them so they can just die from heatstroke instead? Bet you call the cops on single mothers shoplifting food for their kids too, don't you?
In my area there are public cooling stations you can go to instead, but most people prefer the luxury and privacy of their car.
Sure I mean I suppose it is possible that op lives in a very mixed income area where you have single family homes with $40k worth of solar infrastructure on their roof, right next to starving single mothers. But let's be honest here. There's a pretty high chance that the people in question are exactly the kind of selfish assholes who vote for policies which make sure single mothers have no option but to shoplift food, and are also exactly the kind of people the "no idling vehicles" laws are intended to target.
But I guess holding a pitchfork in the air is easier than critical thinking.
I bet you wrote that out thinking "man, this is a good argument".
And I bet you think being dismissive and smug is very cool.
