I was just shocked by the facts I just dug up at the CDC, The numbers of people drowning in the country is just amazing we need water cotrol NOW (ban on large pools, ban on privatly onwed pools, pool registration,mandatory swimming classes and CPR classes before a child is let out of the Hospital)
Age Firearms/Drowning
0 to 4 20 / 516
4 to 9 28 / 234
10 to14 94 / 215
15 to 19 64 / 349
20 to 24 136 / 316
24 to 29 82 / 298
30 to 34 83 /333
35 to 39 68 /307
If just one child is saved the elimanation of pools of water would be a small price to pay.
