How much must we spend to protect people from themselves? What is the value of education if people knowingly place themselves in harm's way and then pay the price when the hazard they knew existed beforehand then manifests itself? It is tragic somebody had lost their life attempting to have fun but this is life. I will also suggest that in order to really live you must have the possibiliy of an untimely death nearby. So let's just accept this was an un-intended own goal and learn from it. If not, we must must start a debate as to when we should be killed or be prevented from having children in case they die. If not, what do we do about old age?
