accident

A pick up truck just smashed into a bus and took out a lamp post and the 3 drunks run for it. The amazing thing is that there were 3 police cars on site within 5 minutes. In the same place a few months ago we had 2 people shot and killed near the same place and the police took 20 to 30 minutes to arrive on scene and a few days later 2 more people were shot in the same area and the police showed up after 30 minutes.

The other day there was a photo in the paper of a drunk driver whose car came to a stop on the sidewalk up against the closed cortina of a tienda. The driver was snoozing when the cops came. But instead of arresting him for operating a vehicle while severely inebriated, and even though his car had obviously been in an accident somewhere else from the damage visible, they simply woke him up and allowed him to drive away.

Hard to believe but true! This is why we can't have nice things.
