why do people suck?

So, I had a strange encounter with a man outside the other day. I didn't feel too threatened, as my dog was yapping at him and he told me I had a "vicious dog." Yay - go watch dog. Well, anyway, I told my family about this specific encounter, but now this suspicious person is on the news and apparently at least 9 women in my area have called the police in the last 2 days about him. So, I decided to give the police my report and they said I did the right thing by calling and my descriptions were matching what other people had said too. Well, now I don't really want to go walking my dog in this certain area. People suck. Really, what is wrong with our society? Why can't people grow up learning to respect other people? At least I have a cute, barky, little watch dog.
