A 6-month-old boy died after being left for hours in a hot car in Louisiana, authorities said.
The baby was found dead in the backseat by his parent at about 5:46 p.m. Tuesday, according to the East Baton Rouge Sheriff’s Office.
When the parent went to pick up the baby from day care after work, they realized they forgot to drop him off at day care that morning, the sheriff’s office said.
But the difference is that leaving a kid at the park might be scary, but isn’t very likely to be deadly. The presence of cars makes it deadly.
(This goes for @[email protected]’s anecdote elsewhere in the thread about a friend’s daughter being hit by a car, as well: the presence of cars is what made crossing the street deadly. Streets predate cars by literally thousands of years, and for 90%+ of that time they’ve been perfectly safe to walk down the middle of, let alone cross.)
People got trampled by runaway spooked horses a lot. Like a lot, lot. Don’t dilute your points with lies.
I’m gonna need you to cite some statistics before I believe that. If the per-capita deaths from being trampled by horses back in the day are even within an order of magnitude of the per-capita deaths from car crashes, let alone greater than or equal, I’ll recant my comment.
Someone who the essence of what I was saying.
☝️ LOL, you know you’ve struck a nerve when a bunch of folks want to downvote but none of them are courageous enough to reply and explain why.
Yeah. That is what I also do not get.
