sledding to be banned on public property

tLiability concerns prompt some cities to limit sledding - Yahoo News


So you say that you take your children to your local park to go sledding in the snow? Not much longer. Now it appears that Big Brother thinks it is far too dangerous for you to do so.

This is the line in the article that kills me .

"Most people realize that cities must restrict potentially dangerous activities to protect people and guard against costly lawsuits, said Kenneth Bond, a New York lawyer who represents local governments. In the past, people might have embraced a Wild West philosophy of individuals being solely responsible for their actions, but now they expect government to prevent dangers whenever possible."

So now children have the mentality of the wild west for wanting to go sledding? Are they now Jesse James incarnate?

Liberalism, the death of the mind, will, and emotions.

This has zero to do with "Liberalism". It has to do with a litigious culture. If it were up to Liberalism alone you could sled anywhere.

Your own link sums it up at the end:

"We live in a lawsuit-happy society and cities are just being protective by banning sledding in areas that pose a risk for injury or death," King said.

It's not liberalism. It's democrat, left-wing, welfare mindset. Litigation is just another means. Another form of welfare/lottery, something-for-nothing mentality.

Yes, conservatives never sue. You aren't even trying to hide your idiocy any more.

It's lefties and left wing agendas who created the mindset. The attempted beneficiaries come in all shapes and stupid sizes.

it's actually linked to progressiveness, not true liberalism. In a progressive society the government is responsible for protecting your every little chance of harm. Thus when you manage to harm yourself, you hold the government responsible. The only response the government has is to ban you from the activity, and the progressive person replies with programmed acquiesce.

Nonsense.

Nowhere in the article was anyone identified as being a 'progressive.'

I am talking about the concept of progressiveness, not progressives as individuals. Progressivism sees the government as the actor and provider of all. If something goes wrong therefore, its the governments fault for not providing it or not preventing it.

Why don't liberals just lock us all up in jail? I mean think about it.

1. Equal access to food, shelter, and clothing.
2. Equal access to educational opportunities.
3. Free medical care, none of this Obamacare crap.
4. Every day is gay pride day.
5. Protection from outside intruders, 100% safety.
6. 100% gun free! Maybe an occasional knife or two.

Make it a padded cell and take away anything to hang yourself with and what you have is a liberal utopia, there is virtually nothing you can choose to do that will hurt you.

Because personal injury lawyers are known for their non-liberal views. HAHA
