Surely this highlights the fact that it's the kids fault not the motorist's, educate them to not play near traffic, seems simple really

No no no - you've missed the point - its ALWAYS the motorists fault - lets put more revenue cameras out in the country , fine em all , take em all of the road, then no more innocent, ignorant little scotes will get run over - simple, see?!

Maybe me but I think that the article is very interesting to say the least, Blows me away as to the amount of kids killed in 2000 (if these figures are accurate). fcuk thats a lot of kids, My children don not even have that many pupilds at both their schools combined

What I cannot believe though is .... Not one mention of the dreaded "SPEED KILLED THEM" ?????

Or is that where I eat my words?

In 2000, almost 40,000 children under 16 were killed or injured on our roads, with more than 14,000 accidents happening in the summer months. Figures just released by the government for 2001, show that this figure increased by an incredible 14 per cent last year.
Splendid - keep it up chaps - I'm looking for a year on year increase here.

Surely its up to the parents to give them lots of boring household chores during the summer holidays so they don't have time to play in the street.

No more irrational than mindlessly blaming drivers.

Is that allowing for the increase in population (inflation) or just a simple increase?

OFFS! The population's far too big on our over crowded little island anyway. I think we should organise a Death Race 2002 around some of the grotty estate areas of the east end of london. 10 points for an old lady, 20 points for a little scroate, 50 points for dealer, 100 points for an illegal immigrant and 250 points for MP's visiting some crac whore.

that reminds me.. here's site I found recently: www.vhemt.org/
quote:
VHEMT (pronounced vehement) is a movement not an organization. It's a movement advanced by people who care about life on planet Earth. We're not just a bunch of misanthropes and anti-social, Malthusian misfits, taking morbid delight whenever disaster strikes humans. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Voluntary human extinction is the humanitarian alternative to human disasters.

We don't carry on about how the human race has shown itself to be a greedy, amoral parasite on the once-healthy face of this planet. That type of negativity offers no solution to the inexorable horrors which human activity is causing.

Rather, The Movement presents an encouraging alternative to the callous exploitation and wholesale destruction of the Earth's ecology.

As VHEMT Volunteers know, the hopeful alternative to the extinction of millions of species of plants and animals is the voluntary extinction of one species: Homo sapiens... us.

Each time another one of us decides to not add another one of us to the burgeoning billions already squatting on this ravaged planet, another ray of hope shines through the gloom.

When every human chooses to stop breeding, Earth's biosphere will be allowed to return to its former glory, and all remaining creatures will be free to live, die, evolve (if they believe in evolution), and will perhaps pass away, as so many of Mother Nature's "experiments" have done throughout the eons.
These guys are serious and I like it
