... who almost walked your six-year-old across the railroad tracks while the lights were flashing, the cross-arms were down and the klaxons were louder than hell...
Don't expect me to apologize for shouting at you and making you stop. Did you look bad in front of your kid? Too bad.
It was your first time taking the train into the city and you didn't know any better?
GOOD.
I taught you both something.
That someone cared enough about your kid to make sure she learned that YOU DON'T CROSS THE TRACKS WHEN THE CROSSBARS ARE DOWN AND THE KLAXONS ARE RINGING.
You both got home safe tonight.
Some people didn't have a loud mouth like me to give them hell. And they never made their destination.
They never will.
Sorry if you're angry at me. I'm not apologizing.
