I can understand requiring a fence for deeper pools. But I don't understand why they think a building permit is going to save anyone's life.

I can't at all. Its called responsibility and we have taken it away from everyone by making such unconstitutional ordinances that require we do the bidding of the government on our own property. Where does it end. How is it that deeper than 18 is ok to require the PRIVATE PROPERTY owner to build a fence to appease the government for the insignificant amount of risk involved here??? Fireworks are not allowed in the entire police state of New York. Why?? Because, sniff sniff, children have to be protected from their parents by the government because a few of them out of millions have suffered injury. So, the whole of the citicenry of New York was stripped of their right to have and use fireworks to save the children. Many more than this die from other causes less than fireworks yet this one gets the banning. I resent government doing such things and resent parents who dont care but I am sick of losing my freedom to the idiots of the world by way of the one-size-fits-all liberal government answer like the one in Pennsylvania about the little pool.

You can?? I don't even understand the fence. It's private property. If I wanted to litter my backyard with steal bear traps ready to go off if someone steps in them, that's my business. Tresspassers(sp?) tresspass at their own risk.
