Do you think they will make the rails higher. NO!

Do you think it matters? Another two feet of rail isn't going to stop someone who wants to kill themselves.

Hell, Fences and signs won't even prevent folks who aren't thinking of suicide from making life risking dumb ass moves..

We have all seen folks - mostly tourists - ignore the warning signs at the coast, and venture onto the rocks reaching out into the Pacific ocean..... Several times a year around here - folks on the rocks are washed off by wave action and drown.

Several times - I've personally warned folks, some with small children that the signs are warning of a clear and present danger and strongly advise them NOT to venture past the signs onto the rocks.. A couple of times -- families with small children ignored the warning, wanting to "let the children get a better look"......

Stupid is as stupid does..

Semper Fi
