We have heard about the 701 fatality before Christmas. However, please read the last chapter. There is nothing to learn here, but I wish to ask each of you to please, take a second to talk to people like this. If a simple talk does not stop them then please report their actions. I have little use for induced stupidity, I myself have been guilty of it and though I hate hearing it, I realize the depth of my miss-judgment when others have responded. BUT for the sake of the family report these people when you see shit like this if they will not listen the first time.
