Let's not forget the lawsuit happy society engendered by greedy lawyers.

There's the link to the DUmp's take on it.  You know what?  They sound exactly like us.  Basically, the whole thing is stupid, it's why kids are fat, and kids don't get a fun childhood anymore. 

One "name removed" for apparently making a sneering comment about regulation.

By modern definitions of what is dangerous I should have died long ago, along with most everyone here.

Sure I got hurt quite a bit but did I make those mistakes again? Nope.

And get this, I got hurt while at the neighbours and we didn't sue them. Bizarre I know.

They may sound like us, but it is their fellow moonbats doing this shit. This is exactly what Cass Sunstein wants to see and they're all about Cass Sunstein. They may have a problem with this, but how different is this from monitored AC temperature gauges?

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

They have apparently backed down after "national ridicule."  (On the news this morning.)  They must have been deluged with mail.  Andrew Cuomo reportedly led the effort to ditch it.  

He may be a democrat, but he's not really an out-and-out moonbat.

I got to play with lawn darts when I was a kid.  FRICKIN' LAWN DARTS.

The pussification of America continues.

Yeah, I remember Jarts. The cool game that was like horseshoes, only less dangerous. If you're so stupid as to get underneath one of those, you deserve to be spiked.

I learned to play horseshoes when I was about 5 or 6 along with many cousins at family reunions.  There were lots of sore ankles and shins back then.
