Horrible people come in all shapes and sizes.

Just walking down the street this morning I encountered racists, bigots, homophobes, people who didn't use zebra crossings, people who crossed against the lights...........

Sure -- I'd rather remove "the big bad" and "the terrible evil" but if it's a choice between eating sweet innocent kids and someone who is clearly an anti-semitic homophobic twat then I know who I would chow down on.

(This is assuming I am a monster, of course -- I am not suggesting I'd do that as a person. I have some standards).

"Jaywalking" was invented by automakers to shift blame away from negligent drivers. Fuck zebra crossings and lights; streets are supposed to be for people!

If you'd want to eat people like this poor woman, you really are a monster and deserve to get eaten yourself!

Jaywalking is so weird to me as a Brit. Sometimes it can be a little dangerous to cross the road, but it’s not unusual to do in cities and towns. There are zebra crossings and such, but they aren’t mandatory (although it’s always best to use them). The only roads you can’t walk on are high-speed roads like motorways, which shouldn’t be a shock. If a driver kills someone walking on the road, they’re probably at fault.
