This is a way of making myself write something coherent and grammatically correct almost every day. I'm opinionated and need an outlet. I'm also prone to flights of fancy. Thanks for stopping by. |
| My cousin's 14 year old daughter, who is very into sports, was walking across the street with three other girls last Friday, when they were struck by a white truck with ladders on the side. The truck didn't stop, but four girls fell to the ground. They still haven't found the driver or truck. This driver apparently thought he had killed somebody and was too scared to stop, or he had been drinking and didn't want to get caught again under the influence. One girl broke a bone and needed surgery. My cousin's child had a concussion and still has a headache today (Monday). The other two got off with minor bumps and falls. So when is it okay to hit kids and not stop? Even if your license is in jeopardy? He may have been sick or blinded by a something in his eye. He might have had an excuse. If it was his employer's truck, he might have been afraid of getting fired. Why hasn't the employer been checking his vehicles since it was described on local news. We had a hit and run which killed a man in my own area. That driver hasn't been found either, but there were no witnesses in that case. Unfortunately, in the dark several other drivers also struck him on the road and didn't stop either. Maybe they thought it was an animal, but where were the headlights? They had to have seen him at the last second. Are people really that heartless? We are seriously lacking in moral conscience these days. Self-interest prevails over the concern for others, and that is devastating. |
