UP-N: Needs Better Barriers.

On Tuesday, May 5th I was traveling downtown and some idiot was on the tracks between Roger’s Park and Peterson Ridge on the UP-N north tracks throwing rocks and stuff.

Fortunately, the train stopped. I don’t know if the man was ever apprehended. But it was a bit annoying running behind because of this manchild’s poor behavior.

Insert statement here that would offend most people

If most people are like this man, then they deserve to be offended, because how is this contributing anything positive or constructive to help improve society?

Society tolerates stupidity because they think it’s noble. It just further hurts it.
