But now we will arrest the stupid? Half of congress would be gone.

Only half? ;)

Good grief, "nuts" is a polite way to describe this country. This may come as a bit of a shock to the mandarins that be but kids do get sunburned even with layers of sunblock on them because kids will be kids and they will try best they can to hang in the good sun until they themselves can't take it any longer. Always have. Always will. And if that was a crime, every damn last parent in this country could be put under arrest.

FROM YOUR POST: "kids do get sunburned even with layers of sunblock on them because kids will be kids and they will try best they can to hang in the good sun until they themselves can't take it any longer"

somehow, i don't think the kids mentioned in the article above had any control over getting themselves out of the sun (well, maybe the two year old)
