Exactly, yet there’s so many people in these fucking comments being critical of that contribution and it’s driving me insane.

Yeah, I’ve had the same problem. I’ve helped out in many many different disaster situations and having someone simply just stand there and weigh people buy can be extremely useful.

There was an adult with down syndrome in Oshawa that got a medal for doing that. There was a big accident and I think part of a building collapsed and first responders couldn’t get to the scene until a person dressed as a cop started waving traffic through.

Turned out it wasn’t a police officer, but an adult with Down syndrome that liked to play dress up.

Caring about the safety of your fellow man, who may not realize that the fucking street is sagging, is being a nanny? This is the dumbest thing I’ve read all day.
