It's a damned shame so many parents can't keep their own kids safe and alive until they are old enough to go to kindergarten. American kids in these age groups are more likely to die of an "accident" than they are of cancer. It also looks like they are more likely to be murdered than children in any other developed country. I am wondering too if many of these deaths listed as "unintentional" are actually murders that were chalked up to the Suffered Enough™ horse shit.

If YOU are the "exception" to what I am saying, then why does my commentary bother you so much?
I don't hate your kids, I HATE YOU!

My guess was "we just looked away for a minute!" Sounds about right.
