Here, a regional town in Australia; we had the council approve build of a petrol station on one side of a children’s crossing from a school block.

No joke; the children’s crossing now terminates on the “island” of the petrol station, with entry and exit for the vehicles of the station either side of the island.

It boggles my mind, truly. I fear it’s only a matter of time before someone gets hurt.

So.. not hard to relate with your post.

I can’t help but notice how poorly people treat eachother in the bigger cities, too. To the point I get constantly complemented for just being a decent person, or aggressively attacked for the same.

Not sure what the answer for any of these problems is..
