Criminal idiot parboiled at YNP

And you wonder why the government has to tell us what to do and how to behave?

Just wait she will probably try to sue the government claiming it's their fault.

My favorite for all time stupidity is the driving with your eyes closed challenge. Remember the woman that t-boned an older couple doing just that and killed them. I don't mind them taking out themselves but leave the rest of us out of it.

Not so, I say let the fools do themselves in, so long as they only kill or injure themselves. Evolution in action.

you can't fix stupid...

Reminds of the sad situation we have here at a PA State Park. When I was growing up there was a beach of sand going right to the water. We went there walking last night. No sand, all grass and a 2 foot high fence along the water for safety. Gates every 40 feet or so.

I guess that makes it more convenient for the parents of young children. They don't have to stop staring at their phone to tell JR not to eat sand or to stay away from the water.

Natures way of cleaning house! I'll stop short of saying what other way's nature cleans house!

There in lies the problem, they never do take out just themselves, if it were just them because of their own stupidity the rest of us would do our happy dance.

The first time we visited YNP with our young kids, we bought a book at the visitors center. My wife read chapters to the kids while we drove through the park. Our kids were fascinated by it and it lead to many hours of discussions about things we should and shouldn't do. They loved it so much that they even used it for book reports in school. Their teachers must have had a lot of questions about what we let our kids read.

After that, the kids always asked if this was part or a series and whether there were "Death In ..." books for other national parks.
