Oh, and if you thought it was good in the 70’s...the 50’s were even better, baby.

Proud of being willfully ignorant of the rather profound reality that dophins are warm-blooded mammals as opposed to cold-blooded fish? As if it's a minor bit of trivia not worth acknowledging! {^) After all, it could have been a fish that bit this kid! Sharks are fish. And all kinds of fish are the kinds of critters that reach out of the water to retrieve food, so ... what's the big deal? If it lives in the water, it's a friggin' fish.

By the way, is that you or a dolphin I smell?

How would you know the dif?

What's too bad is that the liberals who presume to dictate "safe" are incapable of live-and-let-live. If they want to put helmets on their kids and all that crap, let them do it and if you are willing to trust your kids to take the chance, let that be your prerogative. My stepdaughter was telling me that the insulting child safety seat laws had her lightweight but perfectly fine daughter in the embarassing position of having to be in one long after most of her peers were riding like grownups.

I think given their own, most people would reject all these safety laws and let their kids be kids, and the liberals know they couldn't get away with putting their kids in dorky safety helmets or harnesses while most of their peers were allowed a little more dignity. In order to function, liberalism requires quashing self-direction and individual choice, and it also requires vote fraud to win political power.

Oh well. It's sad. Go to a campground on a sunny glorious day and watch those poor damned kids having to ride their bikes with helmets, and when's the last time you saw a kid barefoot? I practically grew up barefoot. Very gauche, I know!

And today's kids are probably going to be lamenting the good ol' days when all they had to wear was helmets and they could pretty much go wherever they wanted (comparatively), while "the kids these days" (2023) are strictly regulated in all physical activity because after all, the GOVERNMENT is their health overseer.

There's nothing new under the sun.

To hell with the rules. Rules are often made by idiots for other idiots to follow. This girl's mistake was that she refused to obey reality. Reality is a much harsher master, and says quite clearly that if you hold a food container in front of an animals face, it will want to gobble that food and anything holding it. Her parents are guilty of failing to teach their kids about reality.

Bingo. But it's amazing what being sheltered does to peoples' judgment.

The state decided to put a big ugly cyclone fence along one of the most scenic parts of the California coast because morons of the type who fail to obey reality were trying to pet the sea lions sunning themselves on the rocks.

That's like going up and "petting" the nice rottweiler guard patrol dog squad at the local junkyard. And if you've ever been within ten feet of a sea lion, it just doesn't take a rocket scientist to kind of get the idea that it's a lot smarter to keep your distance. Hello????? How in hell did these folks thinking they can just approach and pet one, ever live past 10 years old??

*sigh*

Good for you. She was being cruel to the dolphin, and she got a right come-uppance. Cruelty should be nipped in the bud and roundly rejected.
