Quote from the article: "There was really no way to prevent it. There was nothing that could've been done to avoid it."
That's so untrue. It would have easily been prevented/avoided had the child not been in the tractor to start with. Wonder if the little boy having some fun was worth it now?
I know there have been umpteen threads on this forum about children and tractors and everyone has their opinion. My opinion is that kids don't belong on tractors.
What does the age of the person have ANYTHING to do with this? Are you saying that it would be absolutely impossible for what happened to have happened if the person was older? if the person's head was centered above the seat? It may be one thing to believe that "kids" don't belong on tractors, but the death of this child has nothing to do with his age. The line from the article that you quote says "no way to prevent." Do you disagree that something could be done to prevent someone in the cab from being killed by the projectile? The age and fact that the person killed was not the driver doesn't change the type of incident.
I'd love to know your definition of "kid" as another has question, but I truely don't care. I disagree with those that say you are out of line. I believe you're just sickening and are the first person I have even blocked from a forum.
