The Citizens Commission to Save Lives is actively seeking new members. Our motto is simple: Save lives, by any means necessary. Our central objective is to save lives by getting the government to ban potentially dangerous inanimate objects (baseball bats, hammers, rope over four feet in length, high-speed scooters, etc.)

Since people use their hands to choke other people to death; shall our ‘do anything to prevent’ folks push forward legislation that all new born children will have their hand amputated before being released from the hospital. and perhaps follow up legislation requiring the amputation of anyone with hands convicted of any crime, misdemeanor or traffic violation.
And without hands, hand gun crime would end.

I recall a similar article about 10 or so years ago.
It is amazing how many sober adults die in said pool.
It is understandable that many (not) sober adults die in said pool.
It is not at all amazing how many children drown but what is completely (Special Emphasis) are how many men, women, children and dogs die in a completely empty pool.
The strange thing is that cat deaths are never mentioned.

Private pools are a luxury for the 1%. The rich unfairly use more than their fair share of our scarce water. It's not like it, you know, falls from the sky or something. And then they have the nerve to poison the water with chlorine!
It's time to OccupyPool!

Just watched Hitchcock's film
Frenzy last night. The serial killer was known as the necktie murderer.
After watching this film, I must propose that we ban neckties immediately.
And then scary Hitchcock movies...

Why don't you call yourselves “The Citizens Afraid of Life’’? For cryin’ out loud if you don't want a swimming pool, don't buy why one. Why do you feel it's your mission to decide for everyone else? I'm 56 years old and my generation grew up playing ‘’Cowboys and Indians’’, Dodge Ball, riding big Schwinn bicycles without helmets and eating breakfast cereal loaded with sugar and we're still here. For Gods sake we're raising a nation of pansies!

He is exactly correct.
An excellent and well-known way to test one’s own bias, or to test bias in others, is to either substitute or reverse the key term of the argument and see how it plays. We see this occasionally on “man in the street” interviews before elections.

I especially can’t believe we allow people to have even more deadly ADTs: boats.
At least in a pool, even a poor swimmer stands a chance of reaching safety. But even a good swimmer 5 miles offshore after falling off a boat may not survive.
And to make it worse, we allow adults to take children into such dangerous situations.
If we can just save ONE life by banning pools deeper than one inch and banning the use of boats completely, it is worth it. /s

You will be happy to know that Mayor Bloomberg has joined the cause by banning all pools and boats in NYC and is calling for a statewide ban. /s

1) Nobody needs a pool with a capacity of more than 1,000 gallons. Your community pool is staffed with lifeguards who have received special training for emergencies. Do not take matters into your own hands. Close the Slip-and-Slide loophole.

Re:
No law or set of laws can keep our children completely safe. But if theres even one thing we can do, if theres just one life we can save... weve got an obligation to try. Our liberal abortion policy already keep children safer by killing them... before they face the dangerous world where citizens are allow gun ownership.
If not for those evil Republicans, we could abort all children... and just adopt all those excess Chinese babies.
Since the evil GOP denies us that and to prevent Crib Death on those children not aborted, we propose sweeping legislation... to outlaw sleep.
And you four idiots have to ask... why I am a Proud Liberal?

I've been thinking about how we can get under the left's skin, and I think a "serious" movement to censor Hollywood (for it's own good of course,) only "reasonable restrictions" on things that "most Americans" would find "dangerous" and/or objectionable, like movies glorifying violence, or promiscuity, drugs, or attacking Christianity, for example.
In short, the threat of CENSORSHIP of Hollywood, which would drive them absolutely crazy.
If they want my second amendment rights, I want to threaten something they value, like their first amendment rights.
I'm not pro-censorship, just would like to make them go crazy.

All potentially dangerous animate objects must also be banned.
We must ban, confiscate and destroy all
Jack Russells.
If it saves the life of just one child weve got an obligation to try.
