People not so friendly at cross signal

The mayor says Dixon is friendly. Not when you want to cross the street by McDonald's. People make a right turn.

Last night, I waited for the cross signal, and two cars turned. I then proceeded to cross. Some lady in a white car stopped and threw her hands in the air and gave me a look like I wasn't allowed to cross on the pedestrian cross signal. I looked at her and said, "I have the cross pedestrian signal, stupid."

People don't care. They are in cars, and pedestrians don't have the right-of-way.

Where's the friendliness? Not in Dixon.

Quote from Mr. Moore: "I have the cross pedestrian signal, stupid." ===== One more quote from Mr. Moore: "Where's the friendliness?" ===== Definitely no friendliness from you Mr. Moore. Calling someone "stupid" does not often bring out the best in people.
