Back up on that high horse again.

I'm pointing out that we have yet another example of a driver running down a pedestrian in this area, and you're like "meh, not relevant", when it is in fact, the whole point, so yeah, continue to point fingers at me, maybe I was wrong to say you were defending them, but you are defending the status quo situation which creates harms like this.

I've crossed that intersection a dozen times, I can see me being run over, and it makes me so angry.  It's literally one of the worst places to be a pedestrian in the city, yet has a transit station...
First of all, I dont say  "Meh", I am not 14 years old.    You were saying above that is was ridiculous to have a fenced off walkway to keep pedestrian's safe from the vehicles in the parking lot. I am trying to understand why you are against a safety measure even if it is slightly inconvenient. Then you try to use an example of a pedestrian walking in a crosswalk who is struck by a vehicle as a "point" to a conversation about a private parking lot.  You draw a conclusion that I have no compassion or sense of empathy for that unfortunate situation ? Then you need to add a comment about being on a high horse ?  My comment about "Time for self reflection and some emotional intelligence" was a statement for me.  Like, time for me to go have a drink.
