I read something similar, i.e., Disney had killed several gators and at times, had called in professionals to get rid of them. At the very least, there should have been signs which warned of these dangers....I hate the finger pointing, but so many on FB are blaming the parents. It is the typical rhetoric and upsets me in this case. Why in the hell would a family take their children to a child's fantasy playground and expect a gator to jump out of the water and snatch their child. They will forever feel sorrow and guilt over that.......This family will forever regret the decision which took them to Disney and IMO, there should have been signs warning of gators....a "no swimming" sign doesn't do it for me....RIP sweet Lane......
I agree. And, aside from that, if I saw a sign that said "No Swimming", I wouldn't take that to mean I couldn't stand in shallow water near the shoreline.
The parents aren't responsible for this tragedy, even by the most judgmental standards, except in the minds of those who lack logic.
The kid wasn't swimming in the lagoon.
