It would have been more accurate but I don't think anyone should have thought it was safe to let your kids go in water that says "No swimming".

If you hate Laurence, then don't listen - don't comment. When he co-hosts the B&B show, take that day off ... listen to an old podcast of a Bernstein solo show and jerk off all day.

i see both sides here. How many signs can you put up to warn people? what is proper warning? A sign every 200 feet...? well someone well still claim they didnt see the sign.

Disney can only do so much to reasonably protect it's guests from Gators. But I also understand how out of town tourists would have no concept or fear of gators being in the lake... it on the surface just looks like a nice lake.

resorts have been on those lakes for 45 years. first gator incident. that we know of.

2. As for other Do not enter signs, I would argue that rarely do have those signs posted because death lurks on the other side.

It's more fun to be a victim

There will never be an effective vaccine. I'll never get one anyway.

Fences around airports, electrical equipment, interstate highways, and trash compactors all have do not enter signs posted because death lurks on the other side. I see these signs almost every single work day. Rarely would not be the correct word to use there.

Make Disney Great Again.

How many signs? How about more than zero?

Proper warning? one that mentions alligators

Every 200 feet? Probably less than that, I would have at least a few big ones right on that beach in plain view.

There are "No Swimming" signs at the lagoon, and no one but the child was in the water at the time of the attack, Demings said.
Declan Salcido, who was vacationing at the resort with relatives from San Jose, California, said the "No Swimming" signs are visible "from any vantage point."
The lagoon is not for recreational swimming.
"This is Florida, and it's not uncommon for alligators to be in bodies of water," Demings said.

You would imagine wrong. There are do not enter signs all over the rides and monorail tracks.

there were signs nearby

Disney would need to open a sheet metal factory to produce signs for every potentially dangerous thing that exists in central florida. you are captain hindsight if you are arguing the no swimming signs should have read "no swimming/wading or going in the water with a picture of an aligator" apparently you also feel the signs posted every 200 feet need a light on them so they are visible 24 hours a day since the attack took place at 9pm at night.... sometimes bad things happen no matter what you do to protect people.

Why would I think it was safe to enter the water that says no swimming? Here let me give you a few reasons..

1. The lake is next to the pool and I could believe that the signs were posted because Disney didn't want anyone swimming in the lake as opposed to the pool.

2. I differentiate between swimming and wading.

3. I also differentiate between signs that say "no swimming" and "do not enter the lake". There's enough of a semantical argument there that I could argue that clearer signage was necessary given the danger.

In all 3 of those scenarios I would argue that it's reasonable to assume you weren't in danger as opposed to simply breaking a cosmetic rule at he park.


As for the Do not enter signs...

1. I would agree that a Do not enter sign would be more appropriate for this lake than a no swimming sign.

2. As for other Do not enter signs, I would argue that rarely do have those signs posted because death lurks on the other side.

At the Lake Buena Vista course we played last december, the starter told us any ball that was within 10' of the water could be picked up and placed further from the water (no closer to hole) with no penalty.

I am not a legal expert, how many times do I have to say it?

Is it crazy to think they could have purchased this sign instead. But you know disney used the no swimming sign as they didn't want a dangerous thought going thru their guests mind.

OK if you can prove they consciencely chose to not mention aligators on their signs to protect the lagoon.. for the sake of guest comfort...then you got a case. But if people are really expecting the aligator signs EVERYWHERE if there was no past incidents of aligator attacks... you all are captain hindsights http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/captain-hindsight

How about you remove the sandy beach area altogether from the gator infested lake? Who the fuck puts a beach near a body of water and then expects children not to at least go ankle deep in the water? If you want a beach, put one near a pool inside the resort.

I say all this putting blame on Disney but a fair share is on the parents as well. Its 930 at night and you have a two year old splashing around in the water.
