(1,714 posts)In the first place, from the reports, the truck driver was trying to race the train to the crossing. Which makes it his fault. So the ReThugs weren't railroading anyone. (at least in this case.)
In the second place, I'm sure the truck driver's family isn't sitting around making wisecracks. I think we could all at least show a little respect.

death is sad.
Look how many will die under the Republican heath system, like my mom.
Many can be content with the Republicans ruining
Their lives or killing our family members.
I'm not and I won't cry crocodile tears.
