After the A&E program aired, a discussion about this topic came up at the A&E board. I was not a visitor there, but was alerted to it by someone who is, and who is a railroader by blood. At that board there were a couple of individuals making posts, one under the SN "Anglemom", much to the tune of the thread starter here, i.e. Operation Lifesaver is evil and the railroads would like to eat your children for breakfast. I wonder is this person here is not one of those people from the A&E board, as the arguments are boilerplate, as is the blindness to deductive reasoning. Replies pointing out factual errors made by myself, and by another friend who was alerted to the site, were met by incessant b*ll*** like I have been reading here. Aparently, that state law in most parts of the US is still "stop look & listen", cuts no ice. My friend was attacked as being a profit-monger, because his railfanish SN was BNSFxxxx! (Actual roadnumber withheld.) My belief is that this person is a polemic, no longer open to discussion, and that this thread is meant to spread their malicious slander about Operation Lifesaver, or is simply posted because they enjoy provoking people. If you want to keep arguing with them, you might want to have some blood presure medicine handy. It's an endless loop. In the end, I made the briefest, most logical, (and somewhat sarcastic -- okay, extremely sarcastic,) reply that I could make, and then deleted the link from my browser, lest I be tempted to let my emotions get the better of me, or worse, have a premature heart attack of my own.
