What Is Wrong With People???????

Last night something happened that really bothered me and I can't seem to get it out of my head. I'm not sure that it is about my topic but I'm sure that together we will find a way to make it relate to becoming a new me.

I live in Pittsburgh and I went to the hockey game last night, which by the way was fantastic!! When leaving after the Penguins won the game, the parking lot was packed. Of course people were really wound up and excited from watching such a great game.

Walking through the parking lot to get to our car was a experience. There were cars everywhere rushing to be the first to leave. One car had bumped into another car trying to back out of their space. When I say bump, I mean there was no damage. You would have thought it was a fatal crisis that happened because it almost caused a fist fight. People were screaming at each other, threats were flying out of peoples mouths. I don't know how it ended because I just stayed away from that situation.

So anyway, now we are in our car and waiting what felt like forever to get out of the parking lot. I'm telling you that we were only like ten cars back but was in line to get onto the main street for at least twenty minutes. Now remember that the parking lot is packed so you can imagine how many cars there were behind and around us. Of course people are screaming and honking their horns like there is something that someone could do about this mess.

Now here comes the thing that bothered me most. While we were sitting waiting in our car, we saw a girl get hit by this car on the main street. I did not see it happen but the people in the car with me did. They said the girl actually flipped up in the air and down on her back. Do you think the person in the car got out to see if this person was ok?

The answer for that question is NO! The people that were behind that car got out and helped the girl to safety and the car that hit her tried to leave. The people that was helping went over to try to stop that car from leaving, the woman in the passenger side of that car did open her door hopefully to see if everyone was ok but closed the door back up and the car left. People tried to stop them but they cut into the other lane and kept going.

How can someone hit a human being and just leave? Where were the cops that should have been controlling this out of control traffic that lead to these events? I have been to many events there and never seen things get so bad. Most of all I am concerned about this person driving the car. The girl that was hit was walking with a limp but she was alive and functioning which made me feel so much better. Thank god that there is good people out there that do step in and help. She had many people helping her at that time that is why we stayed in our car. But this person driving, what is up with that? How can you look at yourself in the mirror and think that was ok?

To the driver of that car, I hope someone got your license number and reported you, you deserve to be punished. No matter what situation you were in, your actions were totally unacceptable!
