81. I feel so sorry for you
I generally don't post but this is so striking I was moved to.

Given what's going on in this country today it's inconceivable that you would do this.

How exactly does leaving a woman and small child stranded demonstrate your superiority over anyone?

People are more than their politics. History is replete with tragic examples from the left and right when society forgets that. When we start denying a person in need their humanity because of a bumper sticker we are going down a very ugly road.

Even if you could not 'lower' yourself to actually help them personally, why not call 911 on your cell?

Who benefited from this non-interaction? Not that woman and her child and certainly not you. I hope your example is a cautionary tale for others.
