    Been going on for years. I was T-Boned in a police car in the middle of a major intersection in the south metro area, while trapped in my car, the only person that came to help me get out was an off duty cop. People just drove around both cars and the debris. No on can be bothered.

    I've had the dubious "honor" of being on first on the scene for a number of vehicle accidents and one serious medical episode. It never occurred to me to NOT stop and render aid. WTF is wrong with people?

    Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of
    ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?

    They were never taught to help others. And now they are high in state that it's already difficult to breathe in

    The metro is a concrete jungle. I would have stopped. Trust no one anymore.

    Kindness is an expensive trait. Don't expect it from cheap people.
    The character of a man can be judged by how he treats those who can do nothing for him

    It's too bad that people can't put themselves in the context of what happened to someone else. Put themselves in the other person's shoes. How would they like people to respond to them having that misfortune?

    Too many people are self-absorbed narcissists that think the world revolves around them.

    I witnessed something positive in this regard a few weekends ago in Colorado Springs. Someone lost part of a lumber load out the back of their pickup truck in the on-coming left turn lane. A pickup driver going the other direction pulled over on the shoulder and helped get the load back into the back of the pickup. That made you feel good that there are still some decent people in the world that think about other people.

    I guess I would to better to focus on the fact that one man stopped to help instead of dwell on the other 30 people who acted like total dicks.

    It kind of gives you a sense of what would happen in a national emergency or a state of lawlessness. As far as the character of the common man.

    I'm stealing this phrase.

    If someone riding a motorcycle dumps it in an intersection and fucks up traffic I?d be a little upset too. Not everyone on the roads is just out for a leisurely drive. Some people have places to be and things to do. With a quick commute across town taking close to an hour these days anything that makes it take even longer is going to upset some people.

    Guess I might be one of those drivers you were complaining about.
    Yeah but this was in Parker on a Saturday. It?s not like this was Colfax at rush hour. I?m sure people are in a hurry but that?s no reason for them to be so rude they actually put my life in danger as they attempt to run me over instead of being patient. It took about 30 seconds to clear the road. I don?t buy it. There?s no emergency there for them. I think people just suck.
