[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The family has reached a settlement with the parks owner. http://www.kansascity.com/news/local/article125880149.html [/quote] Sadly, his father is a Kansas legislator who's voted against more regulations for and lower liability for businesses, including water parks. The idea is that government regulations are not needed and that someone's church will step in to fund anything that is needed. So, I see that their church set up a Go Fund Me site to college money for the family but what difference does that make? How is paying for the funeral going to help anything? Perhaps the government should step in and have some standards for some things and offer some services rather than relying on your church (never mind that many US citizens do not belong to a church and never mind the whole separation of church and state concept - peshaw..). https://www.gofundme.com/2wrj7w4c I wonder if they have or will change anything? Has anything been learned? I haven't heard anything from the lawmaker about any changes or what they will do with the 20 million dollar settlement to perhaps improve things in the world. When that Virginia lawmaker's son tried to murder him and then committed suicide when he couldn't get him a bed at a psychiatric hospital, he at least finally realized that perhaps adequate mental health care is necessary and he changed some laws. How about this lawmaker? https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2014/09/04/mental-health-advocates/15061189/ I hope that something good comes from this very awful situation. [/quote]
