Amtrak Train & Dude From Flint Play To A Draw

A Flint man whom a witness said drove around a downed railroad crossing gate with signals activated sustained only a scratch when his car was torn in his half this morning when his car was hit by an Amtrak passenger train, the Lapeer County Sheriff’s Office reported. James Brimmer, 26, was traveling north on Lake Nepessing Road when he went around the downed crossing arm and was struck by the train. The Lapeer County Sheriff’s Office, Lapeer city police and Elba Township Fire Department responded to the scene, where they found Brimmer sustained only a scratch on his left knee that did not require medical attention.

Yo, people from Flint are hard, might even be harder than people from Detroit. I'm talking like "get hit by a train and walk away with a scratch on your knee" or "slug it out with frying pans for 10 rounds with your ma until one of you is dead" hard. Artest is just lucky the Palace wasn't built in Flint cause Queensbridge ain't got nothing on Flint's 5th Ward.

And what's up with people always getting their asses hit by trains? Yeah, I totally understand how pissed it makes people to have to sit and wait for a train. You literally feel like you are gonna lose an entire day of your life if you have to sit there, but these people who try to sneak through and get Kronwalled have to be fuckin idiots. I mean if you can make it, then by all means go. I used to do that shit all the time, especially when I was 15 and had my moped. I'd just duck right under that bitch and keep flooring it. But it's just a judgement call, all you have to do is not Jim Joyce it. On the other hand, if there's a freight train barrelling down on you like an unblocked Ndamukong Suh then you should sit back, take 10 minutes and enjoy the graffiti parade. Cause making it to the bank before it closes ain't worth dying. Unless of course you gotta switch money into your super secret bank account that you use for betting so the Lady Friend doesn't know you've blown about a grand since college football ended. Shit would be suicide anyway.
