Well, everyone always hears about some dumb parent leaving their kid locked in the back of their car or van while their in a store during summer. Everytime its a kid who dies from heatstroke who would have lived if the car wasn't locked or if the kid was in the front or if the parent didn't leave the kid there. Lately, this bullshit has become plentiful.
The amount of kids from months old to years old has reached over 60 in deaths from heatstroke in this summer so far alone. This is going to be more than our national record, in which over 60 kids died in an entire summer from heatstroke, in which that year, multiple states reached new record temperatures during heatwaves. Um, I know its been about 20 years since then... but we aren't having heatwaves even with a select few states having hit the temperatures near those old ones. We shouldn't have so many damn dead kids.
I'm not sure if parents in this day and age are retarded. They are screwing up more than ever. I know global warming is in full scale, I could blame this on global warming, but I feel the parents are either equally responsible at minimum as global warming, or they are almost entirely to blame at a 99% amount. You just don't keep a kid in a hot car for 2 or more hours on a hot day during the summer.
Well, at least the majority of deaths are in southern states, where both police, firefighters, and ordinary folk are forbidden to break a window of a car to save a life without facing legal punishment for property damage. Thank god for the northern states! Excluding Alaska, mirror image of Texas!
