[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In addition to signs, there should be a fence around the lake. [/quote]

Oh like we fence off oceans and forests? [/quote]

Right? People are such idiots. Who needs common sense when someone can build a fence and think for you.  :roll: [/quote]

This is private property! Big difference. If you step in quicksand in a forest and die, too bad. If your neighbor has you over for a party and doesn't tell you there is quicksand in the backyard in a place that it looks pretty reasonable to walk near, then your neighbor will be liable if you get sucked in and die. You don't assume the risk in the same way. This concept has developed over centuries and makes a lot of sense. [/quote]

What if your neighbor had a sign up that said "don't play in the sand" and you did anyway? Because that's what happened here. [/quote]

"No swimming" often means "no life guard on duty" and not "alligators may eat you if you put your toe in."  Also, presumably Disney employees are at the beach for these movie events, so they see kids at the edge of the water at night. Do they not say anything? Putting up an ambiguous sign and then failing to warn when people are ignoring it is doubly bad. [/quote]

No swimming means no swimming. For a variety of reasons (one of which might be no life guard on duty). [/quote
Exactly. If you infer the incorrect reason that is really your problem. [/quote]
