wkrg why isnt my posts going thru

46 year old James A. Hill from Louisiana

I came on here to state my opinion not to argue.  You have yours and I have mine.  Have a nice day and hopefully you find something else to do with your time.  grin have a nice weekend!

MLHO, life is like that some times. there you go,notification given. hope you feel better now.

My child is at the daycare down the street.  It would be nice to know that someone or some notification can be given out to advise schools and daycares what is going on in the area and advise of a dangerous situation!

there’s a tag on his toe that reads “2bdead”. sympathies go out to the family, none to him. sorry

Coming out with a name shortly.  Was he from the area?  There was some talk about a Louisiana tag on the car.

I was the guy in the van that was sideswiped.  He also hit another person at the intersection of Hillcrest and Grelot, where I got hit.  While yes I applaud the police for doing what they had to do, 13 police cars chased this guy.  Did one stop to see how the lady in the other car was?  They did not.  Makes you wonder.  I agree about the weird feeling, that you saw this guy in the last moments of his life just thank God he did not hurt anyone any worse than a sore neck.

his name was i.m. stupid

Does anyone know who this guy was?
