It's his community and he was very aware of the comments. Yet nothing was said. And he only confronted it because the fucking news got involved. Before that he ignored it. If the news never got involved he would of cockroached it up for the rest of his life.
I'm not even going to stop going to Thai express. All i'm saying he's a shady dude. I'm not even that invested in this. The facts are the facts. I will give him credit for not censoring decent towards him in his community, that gives him a leg up over Mike Hikman.

People were literally shitting on the family in the post he made. And he said nothing about it until the final post. That's not a good look.
Before any of this happened he tried to lawyer up and stop the story from coming out.
A family who lost their child had to deal with harassment from his community because he was initially cryptic about the story.
There is nothing he can do to move past it and be forgiven. He has to move forward and move past this. Do better in the future.

Stop. So, now he is responsible for everyone else's hot takes on Facebook about the issue? He inquired for a lawyer rec to help guide him through the process, not to sue anyone. He admitted he was wrong, made several posts about how he failed in this instance and was making it right and ended up making it right. What more do you want from the guy? You have every right to not be a patron of Thai Express, but to continue to disparage the man's character after he admitted and owned up to a mistake reflects more about you than him. Being a successful, well-known business owner doesn't exclude you from failure; it just shines a brighter light on you when you do fail. And the dude didn't scurry away like a cockroach.

Is it? It's kinda hard to tell when it's 65° outside.

"Show me," means that you can tell me what you want but I won't believe it until you show me. It's extremely apt given Missouri's weather, it can look like a sunny day today, but you better not believe it's sunny tomorrow until you see it with your own eyes, show me the sun....

A comment in that thread sums it up nicely.
>All it took was 8 months, a lawyer, local media, and public shaming.
I just feel bad for the family at this point. Shitty situation for them, no matter how you look at it.

In have to ask, what would a guy who made this fella's mistake need to do to make it right? At least according to you.
Like me, let's pretend I did something similar. I had offered a % of my intake towards a local family or cause, and had gotten preoccupied with other things and totally forgotten to actually cut the check for $1200 or whatever it was.
Ok so, I realize I've made this terrible mistake. Realize I've caused harm, and want to make amends and do the right thing to atone for my mistake.
What is the right course of action?
I think most people would say very publicly owning up to the mistake with no excuses other than pure failure on your own part, and then immediately following through with the money you'd pledged would be the right thing to do.
I think most people would consider that to be the right and proper thing needed to atone for the mistake.
But you seem to not think it's enough. So then I must ask you, what would be enough in your view? Not to make you not angry at the person, anger takes time to go away, but for you to say "They've done everything they can to make this right and atone properly for the mistake they made."
I don't know the Thai Express guy. I've never eaten there. I have no loyalty to him whatsoever. But I do know that people fuck up, and when they do they should be able to make amends, assuming the fuck up isn't something unforgivable.
My entire stake in this conversation is trying to understand why some people think the guy hasn't done the right things to make amends, and understand what more people expect in a situation like this? Obviously the most ideal answer is "not have fucked up in the first place"....but that's not reality. People will always fuck up.

They get the radar when they go on speed trapping duty. It's one job of many they could get that day.

I’ve had Quantum -> BrightSpeed for 4 months now. The only issue we had was the installation being delayed by 10 days at the start. Everything else is smooth and uninterrupted (so far as we’ve observed).

It took three posts for him to ask his supporters not to attack the family. The family didn't even end up taking the money despite the fact many were saying they were money hungry. Doesn't change the fact that Peter ghosted the family and seeked out a lawyer for "deformation".
Never meet your heros folks.

Right, but the comment you're responding to was from last night. The post he made that he paid it is from this morning.
At any rate I'm glad it's resolved. He responded to one of my other comments, so I did get to tell him that I didn't think he was acting maliciously, and that I believed he would get it resolved, so that was nice.

To be honest I live on National between Bennet and Sunshine, there are constant accidents from people speeding around slower cars. The worst is when people fly across National at the Portland intersection causing a t-bone accident. Lived here 4 years and seen about a handful of those exact accidents. Thanks for letting us know though lol

I'm pretty sure the guys running radar aren't the ones responsible for that.
