As if Kansas lawmakers actually care about harm to children unless it personally affects them. I will never forget the waterslide incident, allowing parks to self inspect and not adhere to basic safety standards is wild. It wasn’t until a politician’s kid died that they changed the rules.
Verrückt permanently closed in 2016 following a fatal incident involving the decapitation of Caleb Schwab, the 10-year-old son of Kansas state legislator (and later Secretary of State of Kansas) Scott Schwab.
After Scott Schwab spoke to his fellow legislators about his son’s death and its effect on him, they voted to change the law that had allowed Schlitterbahn to self-inspect, requiring that all the state’s amusement park attractions be regularly inspected by the state.
On February 22, 2019, criminal charges were dismissed against [slide makers] … the law at the time did not require that those standards be followed.
But yeah, get right on protecting those kids from the gays. And not forced conversion therapy, which is legal in most of Kansas from what I can tell.
