Children Medical Crisis

We need Hillary for President -- either her or that Obama guy. If not one of those two, we've simply got to have someone that cares about the children. Apparently right now we simply don't have anyone in the country that cares about the children. Have you seen the latest danger to children?

Apparently there's been 67 children treated at Temple Street Children's University Hospital in Dublin, Ireland over a 10-week period. Here in the US in a 15-month period, 64 injuries were reported. In Singapore, 37 children had been treated in a 7-month period.

The American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons realizes that Americans are all stupid morons that can't be trusted to tie their own shoes, so the Academy has issued a dire warning that people who use roller skates should wear helmets -- but that's just not working. Kids are getting hurt today, and no kids have ever been hurt before! Kids should never, ever get hurt for any reason, and we need Democrats to protect our children from evil corporations that are getting rich off children's injuries.

And don't you radicals try and point out that the manufacturer already ships every product with warning labels that indicate safety equipment, including helmets, should be worn. We all know that children educated in the government school systems cannot read. And yes, it's true that more children get injured riding skateboards and swimming, but that's not enough. We need government to step in and ban these evil devices that are injuring children.

Heelys need to be banned today or children will die.

1 And of course none of those children have health insurance and their parents can't afford the hospital bills but they can sure afford those shoes, right? Priorities are so mixed up in this country it's pathetic. No wonder people look at me funny sometimes when I'm wearing my oldest pair of jeans and a t-shirt but can still carry on an intelligent conversation.

2 That's right, the shoes cost $50-$80, and they're a MUST have. But medical insurance is free, so they won't pay for that. The free market at work.

Well, the careless & clumsy children, anyway.

Heelys are chlorine for the gene pool.

4 Maybe that's why whiny people want to ban them -- they're afraid they're next.
