TEXTING WHILE WALKING CAN BE JUST AS DEADLY AS TEXTING WHILE DRIVING, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU’RE WALKING ALONGSIDE A CLIFF

A 33-year-old man fell to his death off San Diego’s Sunset Cliffs when he made a misstep because he was texting while walking

On Christmas Day, a 33-year-old unidentified man was strolling atop San Diego’s Sunset Cliffs, a popular tourist attraction. He was there to view the sunset. He was looking down on his cellphone when – Oops! – he went over the edge and fell 60 feet onto some rocks. Needless to say, he croaked.

Witnesses heard him scream, “Help, please God save me.” By the time three good Samaritans riske their own lives by descending to his side it was too late. Perhaps God was busy texting and thus failed to hear the man’s plea.

Idiot texting while walking – and you see a multitude of these fools every day – have knocked down and injured other pedestrians or been knocked down and injured themselves. They’ve been struck by cars while crossing the street merrily texting along. Others have fallen off cliffs all across the country while messing around with their cellphones. A number have plunged into lakes and rivers.

If some of you cellphone texters are looking for God to save your dumb asses, remember that Your Savior may himself be busy texting at the precise moment when you really need him.
