WASHINGTON -- The Governors Highway Safety Association says pedestrian deaths increased in the first half of 2010 and the First Lady's program to get Americans to be more active could be partly responsible. Governors Highway Safety Administration spokesman Jonathan Adkins told 630 WMAL that Michelle Obama is "trying to get us to walk to work and exercise a little bit more. While that's good, it also increases our exposure to risk." After four straight years of steady declines, pedestrian deaths were up during the first six months of 2010, the latest figures available to be studied. Other factors include distracted drivers, distracted pedestrians and what Adkins calls "aggressive pedestrians." "People who are not crossing where they are supposed to. They're running in front of cars. We've even had examples of pedestrians getting out on the interstate," said Adkins. Alcohol is also factor in increased pedestrian deaths. "We've done a good job of getting people, after a night out of partying, to leave their keys behind. But just because you are walking does not mean you are not at risk," said Adkins. Pedestrians are also increasingly distracted by iPods and smart phones. It is not uncommon to see people crossing streets while fiddling with an electronic device and not watching where they are walking. Hospital emergency rooms have reported an upsurge of people injured in a fall because they were distracted by electronics. Significant increases in pedestrian deaths occurred in Arizona, Florida, Oklahoma, Oregon and North Carolina. In the DC Metro area, pedestrian deaths were down in Maryland but up in DC and Virginia.

ME: Thanks for admitting that you ARE trying to spin this (AZ shooting, and terrorism) onto Palin, and conservatives in general. "There will be no more money when the U.S. dollar has no value, until that time we can keep printing more."--go65, resident "economist"
Like I said, you are definately a racist.
Has nothing to do w/ race, it's all about the butchy build. I used to call Janet Reno "A.G. Yeti".
Bullshit. The effective range of a lame excuse like that is 0.0 meters.
You want to see a racist? I'll show you a racist:
And JW's the racist that mentored this racist:
Oh you are the forum perp who talks sodomy metaphors with no gay issue in sight and who has to editorialize every title of every crapola thread you start. You obsess about bullying and controlling others in unscrupulous ways and I've accidently stepped in dog droppings that smelled better than your act here. I ain't watching your crap, and there are kids in grade school more mature and principled than you.
who are being taught all about gay fisting by your comrades.
Like I said, you seem to have a fatal attraction to talking using metaphors concerning gay sexual practices which makes me wonder more about what you and your significant other(s) do in bed, whomever he or them are.
Kevin Jennings, Obama's gay fisting pedophile Safe School Czar isn't a metaphor. Manchelle, First Wookie, First Sasquatch

"I couldn’t bear the thought of people being horrified by the sight of my son. But on the other hand, I felt the alternative was even worse. After all, we had averted our eyes for far too long, turning away from the ugly reality facing us as a nation. Let the world see what I’ve seen." -Mamie Till Bradley, September 1955 In what must have been an excruciatingly painful decision, Mamie Till Bradley chose to distribute an unspeakably gruesome photograph of her son's corpse to newspapers and magazines for all the world to see in late 1955. Fourteen-year-old Emmett Till had been beaten, disfigured, shot in the head, bound with barbed wire attached to a 70-pound fan, and thrown in Mississippi's Tallahatchie River by white supremacists. That single image, published only in Jet, The Chicago Defender, and other black periodicals, is considered by many to be the spark that ignited the Civil Rights Movement; the Montgomery Bus Boycott started three months later.

No kidding? He's just another one of Goldi's group of racists that have decided that just polluting one site isn't enough any more.
Like I said, you are definately a racist.

You are so keen on inferring the First Lady's racial characteristics make her ugly, and so tell me how ugly this youth's body was after racists who who's mind's worked a lot like yours' got done with him.
#15. To: Ferret Mike (#14) (Edited)
Tell me how ugly the little boys assholes look like after perverts like you and Safe School Czar Kevin Jennings are finished with fisting them?
and so tell me how ugly this youth's body was

Nobody plots to kill and oppress better than Whites as recent history goes. And seeing that Whites and their money put Mao in power,...who then slaughtered untold millions in China If there were another planet nearby without this murderous spree,..I'd be outta here for there in an instant if the means to get there existed. Some Alien race could happen by this planet in say 1000 years and find it a radioactive wasteland with Monsanto inspired - Chimera creatures running around in the ruins.
Overall history may find the Chinese winning that prize.
but for now,....Whites are the most evil/selfish schemeing people on the face of the Earth.
its obvious the practice of enabling other races and nations to murder is become something of an export of the White hive mind.

Like I said, your mind defers to racist and gay topics seamlessly. It doesn't bother me to see you show how immature you are by posting videos I'll never click on. And I am truthfully convinced you are most troubled by your own same gender attraction, and this manifests itself in a constant denigration of what you hate about yourself. This is common enough an affliction to really give pause to shake one's head and wonder about you. You cannot stand the thought of who you are, so you try bluster and insult to create denial about your true nature. Your entire posting history is about posturing for an unfair advantage in a thread by re-writing titles and using marginal news sources to get the sort of story you want. You have a racist nick and deal in racist immuendo and try to deny racism in a textbook manner according to Storm Front E activism principles outlined in the E activism section of stormfront.org's E activism subforum. You use homosexuality as a wedge issue to use hate as a focus to draw people into your general political views on things. Over use it in fact, in a way that makes it seem like you protest too loudly because of personal sexual issues. That is you, Bubba. You are immature, vicious, and ignorant.

I saw that movie.
posting videos I'll never click on

That's because you, and the rest of the left obsess over those topics. You bring them up and use them as weapons.
your mind defers to racist and gay topics seamlessly
Well, [war's] got to do something for attention, his multiple personalities aren't speaking to him any more, and his imaginary friends keep finding excuses not to come over.
#21. To: Rudgear (#20)
Wrong. I live in a state where we had an organization, the Oregon Citizen's Alliance (OCA) work real hard to demonize homosexuals as a scare tactic to push their overall agenda. So I am well experianced in dealing with people who develop wedge issue political tactics as the homophobic and racist people in this country are so fond of doing. It is something fought when brought up, not brought up to create fight.

You have nothing to say, so you now join Yukon in Bozo/killfile list land. Ta ta.

Oh my, I'm devastated, simply devastated.

Complete bullshit. You leftists immediately refer to race or sexual perversions, to divert any discussion or opinion which does not meet YOUR agenda. Don't like oBUMa-care? You must be a racist. Don't like the Fed printing our money into toilet-paper? RACIST. Do you own guns? You're a RACIST. Don't believe oBUMa is a legit president? You're a RACIST. Think same-sex "marriage" is wrong? You're a HOMOPHOBE. And WHY do you socialists immediately resort to this shallow tactic? As David Horowitz (former leftist/socialist) explains: Your feeble attacks of "racist" (and the like) are as effective as the Israelis calling anyone who disagrees with them as "anti-semitic," no matter HOW atrocious their actions are... That is to say, your tactics are no longer effective.
Like I said, your mind defers to racist and gay topics seamlessly.
There is no recourse for the individual targets of these gutter attacks, no national arbiter of fairness and balance. The libel laws will not protect a public figure falsely accused, and probably no private citizen either. The courts regard the charge of “racism” under the category of opinion, which is libel-proof in our First Amendment culture.
ME: Thanks for admitting that you ARE trying to spin this (AZ shooting, and terrorism) onto Palin, and conservatives in general.

Earth to Eric, an example of what is wrong with this screed of yours' is I own several guns, some of them very nice, and I hunt and kill game animals. *GASP!* I must be racist then, huh? I'm not going to waste time doing a point by point, so you distill this down to a meaningful form that rates that sort of attention to it. Looking at your assumptions and the rant about what I allegedly believe is so bizarre I can't take it seriously. So, what is your point? I don't see that you have one; just a pointless diatribe.
"You leftists immediately refer to race or sexual perversions, to divert any discussion or opinion which does not meet YOUR agenda."
#26. To: Ferret Mike (#25) (Edited)
*GASP!* I must be racist then, huh? Yep. According to one of your socialist butt-buddies: Michael Moore: People Own Guns Because They're Racists. I could post links to every bogus correlation like that (in post 24), every BULLSHIT accusation you leftists throw... But just one will suffice to make my point.

So, why do you think I like Mike Moore? I have never been into his movies and can't stand him personally.
