On the local news today (Mar. 28, '02) there's a story about a woman chaining herself to a telephone pole in her neighborhood, trying to force the city to install a stop sign on the corner. What's happening is this: People are speeding up and down this street (as opposed to the rest of the city; oh wait, no it's not) and a couple kids have been hit by cars lately.
The problem would be solved, the parents say, by forcing people to go slower. Um, how about teacing your dumbass kids not to run out in front of cars?
