Things have changed. We can't depend on the civility or consideration of people anymore. Where we used to have all adults watching out for children crossing the street, we have morphed into selfish recklessness and kids risk their lives crossing.

This retired Marine is a true gentleman and he stepped up where others didn't. I'm proud of him - and you should be too.

I said he was a fine man - read my post correctly, please.

And I disagree. Most people stop for kids - most people do not want to end up in prison for killing children. If you think we have reckless drivers in this country, check out Sicily - Palermo, in particular. We look like a nation of old ladies by comparison.

Again, there should not be any crossing guards for high school or college students. Kids need to grow up.
