iPod = $100 FINE ?

[ScottyBBadd]

What we need is to introduce a course into the school system that educates people as to how to be smart while moving around on foot or on a bicycle. I walk or ride around Savannah all the time, and when I walk I normally have headphones on. But i walk slow, and *gasp* look both ways.

Ya think.

Let me guess some moron thought a IPod was a bomb and reported it and now people gotta deal with this?

I tell you people are so damn paranoid now.

 

[Addendum]

People are ****ing stupid. It's nothing new.

If I can walk around town listening to music on my 7 year old portable cd player

Then some ******* with an ipod can do the same thing.

Listening to music is not an excuse to stop using your damn eyes, and stop paying attention to **** on the street.

Did you read the damn article?

 

[BeserkerHilf]

his vendetta comes the frustration that he can't work his iPod.


I can't wait to throw this in a script somewhere.

 

[The Apatow Crew]

Did you read the damn article?

No not really.

I didnt read both pages so I'm sorry if some one said this, but is it illigal for deaf people to cross the street in NY?

 

[zanos]

So ppl really do get run over by buses? I thought this only happened in movies and tv shows.

I was thinking the same thing.

They're making it illegal to cross the street with an electronic device in your ear because it prevents you from hearing nearby traffic. By that logic, anyone with a natural hearing impairment shouldn't be allowed to cross the streets at all.

 

[Crooklyn]

I'm not defending it, but to be fair, being deaf is something that cannot be helped by the individual. Listening to loud music can.

 

[Manic]

I get that, but the law basically insinuates that all New Yorkers are too stupid to look before crossing the street. They teach you to do that in kindergarten.

 

[Fried Gold]

Charlotte Troisgros, 16, a Manhattan student talking on her cell phone in a crosswalk near City Hall on Wednesday, laughed and said the law may not be such a bad idea.

Yeah, but was she pretty?

 

[Assassin]

who cares, she's 16 and can walk and laugh, thats ****able to me

 

[Catman]

So due to the idiocy of one man they plan to outlaw the most popular line of mp3 players ever?

Where have you been, man? It usually takes one person to ruin it for the rest of us.

 

[heypapajinx]

i think they should make it a law that people must DANCE accross the street if listening to an IPod.

and i understand the concern.
people are too busy looking down at media/email/texting and aren't looking up to see where' they're walking.
stupid people.

 

[Sloth7d]

Why don't we put every body in re-enforced steel hamster balls. That way they are totally protected from all things bad, but can still get to where they need to go.

I agree. This is just an insanely ******ed law, that is a ploy to get more of the tax payers money.

 

[The Amazing Lee]

F**k the system.

 

[Dorian Gray]

Why don't we put every body in re-enforced steel hamster balls. That way they are totally protected from all things bad, but can still get to where they need to go.

That'd be great, then we could build a stadium and have a giant game of Hungry Hungry Hippos.

 

[amazingfantasy15]

What's next for New York, banning walking and chewing gum at the same time?

 

[jaguarr]

I find this attempt to interfere with natural selection offensive.

jag

 

[CyberFaust]

i did, i tatally got hit by a bus once












nah, not really

 

[CyberFaust]

What's next for New York, banning walking and chewing gum at the same time?

to be fair, there are bimbos in this world that can't chew gum and walk at the same time safely
