[quote=Anonymous]What makes you guys think that different signs would have led to a different outcome?

Go to Yellowstone. There are a few signs saying "Don't feed the Bears!".  Summer's early but I won't be surprised if Yogi munches a tourist who wanted to share a Twinkie. They warn about getting too close to Bison. I bet some dumbass gets stomped.

This was a horrible event. And I cannot begin to imagine what the parents are going through. But really, finger-pointing isn't helping. This isn't a case where mom and dad were sitting at a table getting sloshed and junior wandered off. By all appearances, dad was right there.

And Disney really isn't to blame either. Yes. Florida has gators. But in 50 years of no incidents, it is hard to fault Disney for inadequately protecting its visitors.  This is not a fly by night operation the purpose of which is to fleece customers. Disney depends on longevity and a safe family place. Do you really think that they would risk their rep over a couple of signs?  Do you think the state of Florida would have balked at gator control at Disney?  Of course not!

This is simply a tragedy not really much different than if you were at Great Falls during rutting season and your two year old was gored by a stag. [/quote]
