yup, too fucking dangerous for the kids going by the fun police and soccer moms, so now I'm not allowed to take my nephews out sledding anymore on those nice snowdays we occasionally get.

ITT Discuss how stupid the fun police and soccer moms are.

This is not the greatest sig in the world, no. This is just a tribute.
Not only does it show the stupidity of soccer moms, but it also highlights a severe issue in regards to personal responsibility and claims of liability.
Spoiler
do I sound like Meta yet?

We now live in a society where watching tv and playing games is more prevalent than partaking in an outdoor activity. Banning such a historic winter activity is as absurd as removing all teeter totters or climbers from all parks since a child may fall. While we're at it we should remove all swings since kids could pinch their fingers in the swings and/or fall off. This new trend is disgusting. I am in no way stating that there will never be an accident; however, generations before us have successfully survived while participating in activities that had much lower safety standards. Its time for us as individuals, parents and as a community on the whole to realize what we are about to lose. Let's face it, if tobogganing is too dangerous - what's next skating or better yet maybe hockey?

"flaming nipple chops"-Your host, the man they call Ghost.

To say, 'nothing is true', is to realize that the foundations of society are fragile, and that we must be the shepherds of our own civilization. To say, 'everything is permitted', is to understand that we are the architects of our actions, and that we must live with their consequences, whether glorious or tragic.
fucking lol

The hill where everyone in my area goes sledding is right next to the police station/city hall. The only way they'd be upset is if someone went down the steep or tree covered side of the hill, and even then they'd have the common sense to tell you that's your fault for being a dumbass, and then help you.

As someone who broke their front teeth on a teeter totter, had their fingers pinched and fell off of swings face-first, I can say that in the end it was definitely worth it.

I understand the cause for concern.

Judges should just throw out these dumb ass cases.  "Hur I hurt my back on this companies property".  "You climbed 6 fences, dug a 50ft tunnel, crawled under barbed wire, held a asian kid at gun point to pick a electronic security lock, climbed a hill, slid down it in a laundry basket, and hit an exposed poll, illegally, and you want to sue because there wasn't enough signs forbidding sledding?  Sure I award you 1 million dollars".

That's why you don't go sledding into a forest.

One of the few reasons why I think that 3/4th majority for a civil suit is fucking retarded.

If I were a juror on a civil suit like this, there would be no way in hell I'd award the money to the plaintiff. They were retarded and did something stupid, then it's all their fault and get no moneys for it.

That's a risk I'm willing to take and a potential consequence that nobody else should have to pay for but me.

and that kkids is why you check your path before you sled. if you're too fucking stupid to look ahead and make sure your path is clear before you ride, you deserve it.
