I bet even the Lockpicking Lawyer can't get past this lock!

TBF, this doesn't look like a security feature, but just a convenient way to span the chain taut.

Incorrect.
It used to be a fully locked metal pole gate, but someone a few years ago unscrewed and removed the hefty hinges.
So now under new management, this is the bullshit they installed to replace the reinforced gate, rather than replacing the original gate hinges.
Any 8 year old or above with a flathead screwdriver can take that new chain shit down...
To be honest, it might be faster picking that shit lock than running that hose clamp out with a screwdriver.
Could be either yo, like it might be quicker with a paperclip LMFAO!
I was thinking it was that yellow plastic chain that used to be everywhere
Also, is that chain plastic?
Oh no, it's a metal chain, apparently covered in powder coat yellow.
I ain't gonna mess with it, but it won't surprise me a bit if other neighbors eventually fuck with it.
Some chains have metal underneath the plastic shield so it looks nicer longer and can be various colors.
Is tampering with property+trespassing more of a legal no-no than just trespassing?
“Parking: $80 daily maximum”
“Parking: free if you have a flathead screwdriver”
I could probably sit my ass on the chain and break the hose clamps...
I'm not gonna try, I'm an honest person, but still...
But be careful, if the road ia slippery you might happen to fall onto the chain.
I think my car could break that chain. Or the hose clamp. Or the poles. 🤷♂️
The weight of my own ass on that chain could probably break the hose clamps..
No, I'm not such a malicious person, I won't be doing that.
But still, that's gotta be about the weakest lock almost ever...
Towing fee for parking there is more like $200, daily.
