Okay this is my last post, the dead horse smiley is coming out soon.. I have put my thoughts out there and its obvious that some agree, some dont... My last point is this...
Dino do you really need a warning label, are you that confused or uneducated in life that you can't see that a ball hit from a bat is going to hurt like heck if it hits you? Every kid in the neighborhood knows it, why your having such a hard time with it Im not sure, maybe you took a whack as a little one and that explains you reasoning for seeing the need for a label.... Im curious though, at exactly what speed of the ball is it unacceptable for your child to be on the field? 30, 40, 49, 100? How do you make any sort of determiniation about this? I think it was presented earlier in this thread that there are standards that are already in effect, so if this bat was within those known and accepted standards then why would a warning label have made a difference.. You tell me now what is an acceptable speed of an object that could cause injury or death to you kid? Did the parents in this case know what the speeds of the balls were that were being hit from a wooden bat before their son was killed? So they waited until he was dead before they looked into it... The same injury could have happened from a wooden bat had the ball struck him in the same place with his body in the same position.....
Just as always someone wants something for nothing, not to say the death of their son was nothing but they are trying (and succeeded) to fill that void with cash.....
Sue the standards organisation that makes the decisions on what bats can and cant be used, not the company that made a bat that fit into the accepted catagory...
I'm done with this one, Im sure we didnt change the minds of any of the die hards on the other side but maybe there is one person that sees that personal accountabity is the key....
