"That's the first time I really got angry about the situation," Wallace said. "What if that was a kid turning that corner?"OK, I've gotta say it. Why do people always use the "what if it was a kid" angle? As if it's not tragic enough in it's own right for an adult to suffer or be killed needlessly. He's mauled and dead, yeah, but at least he's not a kid. I believe we as a society need to protect the vulnerable and that includes kids, elderly, and animals as well as mentally retarded or otherwise incapacitated individuals. It's actually more of a loss for society to lose a productive functioning adult.
