Making threats and insulting people only shows ignorance, hatefulness and it makes you look like you are on the defensive side of the issue. Why is that? Do you think you and every one in the railroad busness is perfect? Last I knew no one or nothing is perfect. Malfunctions occur. People make mistakes (on both sides) Yes I agree there are people out there that will go around gate or not stop at unmarked crossing. I will not say that every one hit by a train is not at some fault. But on the other hand there are times they are not at fault and there is such a ru***o cover any imperfection on the railroads part. I always wondered why it is that if a individual is hit by a train the first thing that seems to come up is that the driver tried to go around the rails? It is publicized immediatly as just that the drivers fault. BUT when a train derails or collided with another train it is always publicized that it is under ivestigation and may take months for a report to be made. Would it be that by then the pubic is not longer thinking about it and all is forgotten? You know I am not saying that all accidents are the railroads fault but I am questioning why you all can't atmit that you and the railroad company is not perfect? What we have is two sides so busy bickering with each other and insulting other that what is important is not at all addressed. People are dying. It may just be a statistic to the railroad but it is some ones loved one. Is there no empathy out there for anyone else? Just the same as the employees. They are in danger and I am sure you all know how dangerous the rail yards are. Accidents still happen. May or may not be any ones fault but think of your family and hope they are treated with empathy if some thing where to happen to you. I expect to hear some rude mean replys to this and that would be sad because it would just show how uncaring and hardened people are to life. I am not attacking any one I am simply stating that no one is perfect and both sides need to admit when they are at fault instead of bickering.
