I feel sorry for the little boy.
But I've been to Disney World, they have signs EVERYWHERE
stupid parents.
Why? Is Disney really able to suspend reality in the adult mind?I feel sorry for the little boy.

The signs say "No Swimming" which is an entirely different message than "Stay away from water due to wildlife". The toddler wasn't swimming, he was standing just inside the edge of the water. I can't pile on the parents on this one. Not everyone understands Florida wildlife and no doubt when your on Disney property there's a false sense of security around the water.

Swimming and wading are not the same thing. They've made artificial beaches and put beach chairs on the edge of a lake that has alligators. That is damn retarded.It really is our society. Rejecting a basic moral foundation, by rejecting religion as a whole, leads to self-centered, narcissistic, irreverent behaviors as the rule. We can either wise up now and change that trend. Or we can go with the push from the New Church of Atheists (dogmatically adhering to complete rejection of morality, evangelizing that to the masses and punishing heretics within & "infidels" (those with a moral mooring) outside their ranks).The amount of insensitivity from people on the internet is stunning. I was reading an article on this last night the comments were horrifying. I wonder if it's just a small subset of idiots that do this or is this really our society?
This gator attack was predictable and terrible. Just like the night club. The bait was too irresistible for the practiced predator. And if you go near the swamp's edge in the South, splashing around with your 2 year old in the shallows near the bank, you are tempting a terrible fate. Word to the wise. And, my sympathies to the parents of that child. My God.
False equivalency. You're comparing a killer with a gun to an alligator, an animal in the wild? Oh wait I guess you really don't understand the concept of the human mind and will as opposed to instinct
This man-made lake is built inside a man-made park. This family was not wandering around in a swamp in the Everglades. Disney is facing a lawsuit of unimaginable proportions since they allow wild carnivorous animals to mingle with their guests.
I agree Disney is facing a lawsuit. But if you've ever stayed on Disney property (I do several times a year) the "man-made lake" you're referring to is obviously set in nature with easy access by any animal in the area. Disney property is not fenced off but rather sits in the middle of the wilderness. I don't blame the family as not everyone understands Florida wildlife, and like I said Disney bears some of the responsibility for not posting better signs and for making the lake so accessible. But there is absolutely no way for Disney to keep these creatures off their property short of full out hunting and extinction. It's just a horrible situation all around. I stood on that very beach not to long ago with my toddler.
What Disney will do is close those beaches to their guests because no one can read or follow directions. If I saw a sign that said no swimming I would not allow my toddler in the water.
They don't have signs warning about alligators.I feel sorry for the little boy.

stupid parents.
Again, if a sign says no swimming I would not be in the water nor would my baby. What Disney will do now is remove access to this and all waterfront beaches. Course you could meet an alligator on the golf course. Should we sue them over that too?Why? Is Disney really able to suspend reality in the adult mind?I feel sorry for the little boy.

The reality is it's unrealistic to expect everyone flying into Orlando to visit Disney World be familiar with the local wildlife. Creating beaches with chairs next to a lagoon with boats going by, light shows in the water, movies and of course a great view of the Magic Kingdom is enough to lull anyone into a false sense of security. I just can't put that much blame on the parents. I think Disney needs to educate people better while on their property. Last time I was there the boat operator for our hotel told us Disney hires contractors to locate and remove alligators from the lagoon and surrounding property. So they are clearly aware they are present. Why not just post a sign that says so instead of "No Swimming"?
If it eats a two year old, sure. Not that two year olds hang out on golf courses.Again, if a sign says no swimming I would not be in the water nor would my baby.

If they are eating two year olds, sure.Should Disney be required to post signs that there may be snakes coyotes, and spiders on it's property?
Don't you live in Fla? Do you have aa sign in your front yard?If it eats a two year old, sure.

According to this write up here, there were "No Swimming" signs where the boy was and yet he was in the water any way. If them signs were really there, that is all that I need to know.First, some mad man gunned down pop singer Christina Grimmie. Then, that Islamic attacker did his jihad at the nightclub, producing the deadliest attack on American soil since 9/11.
Now, an alligator gobbled up a boy at a Disney World hotel.
Alligator drags child in lake at Disney resort, deputies say
Nope, I don't have a beach with beach chairs overlooking a lake with alligators. If I did and a kid got eaten I'd be in deep shit for having what they call an attractive nuisance unless it was posted and fenced off from the public.Don't you live in Fla?
