My colleague Jennifer Oliver O'Connell has a weekly feature called "Feel-Good Friday," in which she highlights those feel-good stories that remind us there is good in the world and, more importantly, we can be the good in the world if we choose to. It is a lovely series that I hope you are all reading whenever it goes live on the front page of RedState.
However, while it is true that we can be the good we want to see in the world, sometimes forces beyond our comprehension recognize that, amid all the bad going on, sometimes we need a little help finding joy. So, for whatever reason, those forces saw a great need this Sunday morning and gave us exactly what we needed during these trying times: An anti-ICE protester screeching about an illegal getting arrested only to discover she forgot to put her car in park.
Fox News reporter Bill Melugin brings us this fantastic story today.

Now I do not wish bodily harm on others—or, at most, I wish a small space rock would hit someone just hard enough to really inconvenience their day—but I am not opposed to pointing and laughing when Karma does its job.
Most of us have probably been a little forgetful with our vehicles. We might've forgotten to turn it off before going inside. Maybe we forgot to lock it, and it got robbed. Perhaps we were paying attention as the gas tank got too low. And, yes, some of us have forgotten to put our car in park. But it takes a special kind of forgetfulness, the kind often accompanying misguided rage, that would let us walk away from our car before ensuring it rolls into the nearest body of water.
Or, perhaps, the car was simply tired of all the screeching and decided to do something about it. Frankly, it would be irresponsible of me as a journalist to rule out that possibility.
