    Right? If that's not enough, the goddamn SIGNS saying "DO NOT SWIM HERE" should be.

    They probably could have mentioned the gators on the signs in addition to no swimming/deep water, though their prevalence seems a reasonable thing for an adult to know about Florida.

    There was a picture on the sign as well as "No swimming".

    I only saw pictures of signs that said deep water, steep dropoff, and no swimming (with no alligator illustrations).

    It doesn't take a genius to see the no swimming sign and be in fucking Florida to connect the dots. But hey, that kids dead and those parents get to live with it. I hope they fucking go to bed every night hearing that kid scream. Fuck them.

    Like I said, I think it's pretty reasonable for them to know about Florida and its alligators. They made a very idiotic mistake and will indeed have to live with it for the rest of their lives. Wishing that kind of pain on someone seems particularly cruel in its own right to me, however.

    It depends on exactly where the child went in and where the family was, but where Disney may run in to a bit of liability is that it appears from an article and pictures is that it was a sandy "beach type" (my words) area that led directly up to the lagoon. Just because a zoo puts a bench in an area with tigers that isn't closed off to the public and puts a sign that says don't sit here does not absolve said zoo of any responsibility. Know what'm sayin.

    Disney will offer a generous compensation, they're not going to fight this in court. Whether the family accepts that or decides now is their time to go double or nothing remains to be seen.
    You had better pay your guild dues before you forget. You are 113 months behind.

    Car is making grinding noise like metal breaking when turning a corner. Take it to a shop and they find $2000 worth of repairs.
