Lol not only do most people never come to a full stop before turning right on red, but also I've known many many people who don't even realize you have to stop before doing it (they think "right on red" means you can treat it as a green light if you're turning right). The whole danger to pedestrians is that the drivers are looking left to see if cars are coming from that direction and won't even see the pedestrian until they're splattered across their bumper.
Some intersections where I live have signs that say "right turn on red after complete stop" which pisses me off because that's always the case. The signs imply that otherwise you don't have to stop before turning right.
