Jogging makes you stupid

Today started out great! It was nice and cool, the sun was just coming up, no traffic as I rolled quietly through downtown Portland. I crossed the Burnside bridge, heading for a quick stop to get a Powerbar for the ride home. I' stopped at a stoplight, which won't turn because I'm not driving an automobile. I look to see if any cars are coming, and I do not see any for at least a quarter mile. Now I realize that I was breaking the law by going through the light, but I did come to a complete stop first. Now, this is where the stupidty starts. There were 3 joggers that were doing the exact same thing I was, crossing against the light. As I get about half way through the intersection, one of these mental midgets says "hey man, the light is red". Since when is it ok to cross against the light just because you are on the sidewalk? I guess joggers are just holier than me in the criminal world.
