I'm still not convinced that riding atvs is more dangerous than climbing trees. You're typing as if a little kid can just hop on a 500cc atv and be gowing 100 mph within a few seconds. (I doubt they could even get one of those started.)
I'm imagining a little 50cc automatic that putts around and is very easy to operate. That's what little kids ride and those are hardly dangerous at all. But anyways, I can grant you that an atv is more dangerous. Now, where's the criminality?

Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

And when the child is riding an atv but the parent is not being irresponsible?

Then it will be the parent operating the ATV and the child riding as a passenger wearing full protection clothing. Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

Or it could be the parent responsibly allowing the child to operate the atv by itself.
Unless you just want to beg the question?

The parent needs to understand the physical, emotional and judgement levels of children, and brain, coordination, judgement and experience are simply not there yet for kids that young.

Nah, I think they are there and the kids are capable enough. Its really not much different than riding a bicycle. Or do you think you should be 12 to ride one of those too?

Bikes too can be dangerous and kids need control and supervision and full protection clothing riding them too. BUT, bikes are no where near the level of risk of an ATV, JetSki or Motorcycle.

I knew you were an idiot, but I didn't realize you were so hypocritical too.
Here is every word that you've added to this thread. Nowhere do I see any contribution of anything nor do you mention Fox News or address the topic at all. All you do is bitch and complain and play moderator. You've provided nothing. You're worthless.

Thank you for contributing to the topic. The majority of my posts were on topic. To demand evidence for baseless assertions is very on topic. I know you do not feel people need to back up their assertions, but I do.
Tell you what Cs. Since you do not like me or my posts how about you just ignore them. But if you post your crap without any evidence or justification, I will ask for evidence. It seems you just don't like to be called on the crap you post. Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts

Anybody can read through thread and point out every unsupported assertion with a call for evidence. It doesn't actually provide anything for the discussion. At the end of the day, it really doesn't have any value.
Tell you what Cs. Since you do not like me or my posts how about you just ignore them. Since you don't like unevidenced assertions, how about you just ignore them.
But if you post your crap without any evidence or justification, I will ask for evidence. It seems you just don't like to be called on the crap you post. I don't mind at all. I'm here because its a two-way street. I'd just blog if I didn't want to be called on.
I know you do not feel people need to back up their assertions, but I do. Its not that. Its that mostly it doesn't really matter, discussion can still take place with things being assumed, and at least the person is actually adding something to the discussion.
Thank you for contributing to the topic. Yeah, and once again you have not added anything to the discussion nor addressed the topic, nor even mentioned Fox News.

Everybody knows Fox News is a bunch of liars.. They should be classified as entertainment and not news. This is obviously not true. Coyote for one would seem to disagree with you. Also, the millions that watch Fox news everyday would disagree with you. You should be careful speaking in absolutes. Fox does not tout itself as an entertainment network, they tout themselves as a news network. Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts

Fox news even has gone as far as alter photos for their own agenda.
