BarkinB Posted December 3, 2006 Posted December 3, 2006 Something like that can leave an ugly cloud over you for a time. Do what you can to make it a short time. When I was 11, I saw a horrific crash at the end of a high speed police pursuit. In Arlington, VA (suburb of D.C.), at a busy intersection in the evening, speed limit 30 on both roads. Two (probably drunk) maniacs run the red light going at least 70. They clip someone, wreck, but aren't hurt. The pursuing policeman slams someone else at the intersection (a lone woman). I never knew if the cop made it, I think he was still barely alive when the ambulances came. The woman died instantly. The thing that I'll never forget is the horrid creeps that caused the whole disaster actually pointed and laughed at the woman as they picked her mangled body out of the car. I was so stunned I almost fell over. For weeks I raged at those guys. It was hard to get over, but 36 years later, I only think of it when I hear about something like it.
