[QUOTE="FruDaddy, post: 1210678, member: 63076"] True, but in light of the death, I didn't really want to say that everything in the link points to the fact that the kid would still be alive were he not riding on somebody else's land without permission. Trespassing is trespassing with or without posted signs. The landowner has every right to put up barricades (cable) to keep trespassers out. If the cable were there to do harm, I don't think that there would have been red streamers attached to it. Also, it appears from the provided link, that the land may have been used by a construction company (read something about the road being used by the owners business trucks). Well, it would not be unheard of for a business to close off the entrance after working hours. I still leave the possibility open that the cable was put in place to keep the dirtbikes out, but there is nothing mentioned that indicates to me that the land owner knew that there were kids on the property at the time that the cable was placed across the road. It also seems to me that the existence of the cable was known to the boy: I cannot omit the fact that most of the information provided has been given by other kids claiming to be close to the deceased, and therefore are clearly biased. Oh, and he was on his way home at 8:40PM to be with his mother on her birthday :whoa: There aren't enough facts in the article, but there is quite a bit of information given by people claiming to be this kids friends, if their information is accurate, than this kid is responsible for his own death and the property owner has done nothing wrong. Of course, I cannot verify the accuracy of the information, or the identity of it's providers, so the only reliable facts that I am aware of are that a kid rode a motorcycle into a steel cable with red streamers (which would only be there to make the cable easier to see) and has died. And that, in itself, is tragic, no matter what the cause. [/QUOTE]
