[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][u][b]All this talk about adequate signs!  As if people actually pay attention to them?  Really[/b][/u]?

Go look at a Stop sign. It means "Stop". It is unambiguous. It does not mean "Slow Down, Someone Might be Coming". It means "Stop". And people ignore it all the time.

Tylenol has a warning. Don't take with alcohol. People ignore that all the time too!

Go to the beach.  Caution Strong Current signs are routinely ignored and people who haven't the slightest idea what they're doing drown because they ignore the sign.

Maybe these people would have hightailed it away from the lake if it had a gators beware sign. I tend to doubt it, though.

I would bet that each one of you who complains about the lack of a warning sign routinely ignored warning signs putting you and your children at risk. [/quote]

That's fine.  If people don't pay attention to them, then that is their problem.  Disney is covered.

If Disney does not put them up, then it *is* Disney's problem.  And that is what we are saying.  [b]Disney had inadequate

signage.  [/quote][/b]

No, it didn't. . Look at the CNN and other posts.  "NO SWIMMING" .  How much clearer does Disney need to be?  and there was an adjacent pool with lifeguard to let the little ones have fun.  Parents were watching movie.  Kid goes off into no swimming area.  horrific things happen.  But that is florida.  What do you expect of disney?  TO red rope every single beach in the lagoon saying "some dangerous life forms like snapping turltes or alligators may be present - or sting rays - or crabs - or bugs"

I cannot believe how some of you will fight to your last breath to protect Disney like this. They are a large corporation, people.  They are not your mother or your grandma.  The Disney glitter has gotten into your lemonade.[/quote]

New poster here. A large corporation is owned and staffed and run by real people.  It does not exist in ether.  There are real live human beings at Disney (or any company) who are probably incredibly distraught this happened. Not for any monetary or branding issue, but because it was a terrible tragedy to a little boy & family. [/quote]
