And this country's retarded judicial system pays off yet another moron. What should've happened is that after waking from the coma, the idiot jaywalker should've been issued a ticket for jaywalking. Instead he is rewarded for his dumbass behavior with $500k.

Was he really rewarded though? The $500k could have gone straight to the medical insurance company to reimburse their costs incurred.

Another vote in favor of the OP. People need to fucking get it through their head that the world is not their cross-walk.

get a good lawyer and counter sue him.

Nvm, OILFIELDTRASH's posts are completely useless.

You're catching on.

 

[CountZero]

get a good lawyer and counter sue him.

Pretty much this. Go to therapy, if it is a financial burden suing him is not immoral in the slightest. It is not really immoral even when it isn't a financial burden but since you don't seem to want to take legal action then that should be the determining factor.

The guy driving is not obeying the law if he's not watching where the fuck he's going. He was apparently driving too fast for conditions ........ just because the speed limit sign says 45 doesn't mean you have to do 45. How do you know so much about how that pedestrian thinks or what his motives were? ...... Blame it on the pedestrian .... obviously he deserves to die.
I say it was a tragic accident which could have been prevented by either or both parties.

Northeasterner? Check. Patriot fan? Check. Liberal? Check.

Trifecta of retardation with this one.

lol. Win.

This thread is now about stupid people doing/saying stupid things...oh wait. It already is!

Next time I'm in my car on the interstate, I'll be sure to go 5mph to ensure my ability to stop in case some transient decides they want to /themself.

How can you be so dense?

Even if he's going 25mph, if someone jumps out in front of him he's going to hit the guy! The impact wouldn't be as bad obviously but WTF drives 25 in a 45 just because it's dark?

What you don't drive 20mph? While flashing your high beams after the sun goes down. I thought everyone did this.

In case you want to get into a retard's mind, I know someone who thinks he's not licky enough to get hit by a car, so walks without looking. Yes, people actually think this.

I've had my fair share of retards walk infront of my car without looking. I live in a big city and walk most places, so I jaywalk like hell, but I look both ways. If I have to run, I run while looking at approaching traffic.
