    I hope that whenever you find yourself in a vulnerable situation you will be met by people with empathy and care, rather than disdain.

    In the meantime I also hope you don’t run over anybody.

      Thanks for the sentiment, however I take responsibility for my own safety. I don’t put that on others and live my life being a victim of other people’s choices.

          It really is that simple if you take personal responsibility and don’t live life as a victim. It’s kind of an old fashioned idea though.

            Tell that to the several people who were killed in an intersection close to where I live. Mowed down while they were walking in the sidewalk. Not even crossing, mind you.

            If you think nothing bad will happen to you because you are responsible, think again. There is a lot that is not under our control, no matter how hard we would like it to be true.

              You can keep trying to justify yourself to me but it won’t make a single difference you’re in some kind of strange fantasy world and now you’re just googling for stuff to support your point rather than listening to my facts. Whatever.

                now you’re just googling for stuff

                I don’t need to Google to learn what happened in my neighborhood. I saw the ambulances and the flowers left by their loved ones in the days after the collisions. Yes, collisions because it’s happened twice in the same intersection in the past few years.

                “Personal responsibility” is the weapon used by those who feel safe to justify not helping others who aren’t as fortunate.
