Lots of homeless/crackheads wander into traffic here. Most likely that’s what happened. Most of the time cars are able to stop or dodge them but every now and then they get hit. Sad as they already have nothing going for them.

They are too busy eating donuts to do their job.

He had PLENTY of time to judge that something was going on ahead and should have hit the brakes.

If the car was obeying the speed limit, if he had the ability to stop, etc.

Calling people “asshole” on a blog isn’t edgy, by the way.

Thanks for being the voice of compassion and reason and not misappropriating a tragic event (to voice fruitless opinions about an impending class-war, for example).

Disclaimer: My first thought went to the class war too…I won’t make the same mistake by posting it here.

Thanks for the link

Have you driven a car and had someone jump out in front of you? You’ll fucking kill em. It’s physics, asshole. If you don’t believe me, try it and post your findings. See if you can have that car instantly stop but don’t blame me for the mess.

Streets: Fast moving vehicles (mostly cars)
Sidewalks: Humans
Crosswalks w/lights: Humans/Vehicles, cross when safe
