  1. Surprised he didn’t throw the pedetrian down and arrest them for illegally crossing in front of a drunk cop

  2. Mr liability should be required to have his own insurance
    So We the People can stop getting hosed

    And he can be stopped by the insurance agencies from ever being anything even close to a crossing guard

    And remove his privilege as nothing higher than any other person , no extra rights

    That’s when you’ll have a real chance at getting this shit show cleaned up
