A Fort Wayne police officer with a history of traffic offenses has pleaded guilty to an infraction after his vehicle fatally injured a pedestrian who was in a crosswalk.

The officer was previously disciplined 4 times for other driving offenses, but killing someone - well - $35.50 oughta cover it.

    Yes, the problem is that there is no redress of grievances outside of the legal system.

    The only options are

    1: to keep things as they are

    2: to make it so that if something happens you just can’t sue anyone and tough luck, or

    3: institute a new system, in which case you have to get such a huge percentage of the population on board with your new plan that it basically amounts to a constitutional amendment.

    So you can complain about how often people sue each other all you want, but until you come up with a new and better solution and actually get it passed then all you’re doing is griping.

      Right, let me just go and fix it myself or forever be silent. I forgot people aren’t allowed to complain about things.
