- ryandrake 11y agoOr the retiree condo commanders going around measuring people's shrubs to make sure they comply with condo bylaws section 4, subsection 65, paragraph 5. For some people, ubiquitous rule enforcement is a utopia, not a Orwellian nightmare.
- oneeyedpigeon 11y agoYou're seriously equating speeding on a road on which a child has been killed by a speeding vehicle to keeping shrubs tidy?
- ryandrake 11y agoMy guess is that 99.9% of the people on the road exceeding the speed limit this morning are not going to kill a child (or hurt anyone) with their car today just from speeding. It could be 99.99%. I don't have the statistics, but there are probably a lot of 9's there. No matter what that number is, there are already laws against hitting kids with your car. Enforce them. Why do we need to ruthlessly enforce something that the majority of drivers do and in most cases does not result in injury? What I'm equating is the mental state of the busybody: The need to go out looking for rules being broken that otherwise would, in all likelihood, go unnoticed.
- peatmoss 11y agoReally? Speed is a major factor in pedestrian deaths. In fact, this fellow is responding to a child being hit on his street. Seems like he's identified a problem and is doing something to highlight that problem. Good on him, I say!
