A sidewalk accident made this boy the latest Avatar character.

Stevie was playing near the walkways when his jacket became snagged — violently snapping his head backwards.

"[My son] died, stopped breathing under a 20-foot Sainsbury's sign. You tell me whose responsibility it is."

Sounds like your's toots - why would you let your child play near walkways?

“[My son] died, stopped breathing under a 20-foot Sainsbury’s sign. You tell me whose responsibility it is.”

Already answered earlier in the article...Stevie was playing near the walkways when his jacket became snagged. Why was he playing near the escalator? Where was his mother and why did she allow him to play near a piece of machinery with moving parts?

"You tell me whose responsibility it is."

Hmmmm ... boy playing near moving walkways? Did mall management tell the boy to play there? Did the mother tell the boy to stop playing there? I think it's pretty obvious whose responsibility this is.

"[My son] died, stopped breathing under a 20-foot Sainsbury's sign. You tell me whose responsibility it is."

Gladly sir, it is your responsibility to control your son and not allow him to play near moving equipment.

"You tell me whose responsibility it is."

Yours, for not keeping a closer eye on your damned kid, lady.

If was up to Our Enemy not only would the moving walkway be at fault, but they’d pass a law banning moving walkways just in case such a thing happened again.

This is the former coach in me: "Walk it off!"

This is the weightlifter in me: "If it don't kill ya' it'll make ya' stronger."

In other words, quit whining and looking for someone to sue.

Our country is rapidly heading this way. Blame everyone else for your problems and sue. Just look at Zero. Can’t take responsibility for the mess HE has created. Keep pounding the statistics. Unemployment at 4.5% before the Dems took over Congress in 2006, now at 10+%. Keep reminding them!

My husband works on elevators but has helped friends with escalators. In the pit they found shoes and whole packages. These parents were idiots. Mom let the kid play somewhere unsafe.

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

"There needs to be something there to stop this from happening again,"

Ummm...there is.

It's called, "Parental Supervision".

I’m curious, was this spontaneious combustion or a miracle?

He was not breathing when his mother hit the emergency stop button but later regained consciousness.
