You Know What I Despise ?

Safety warnings, I hate them, they insult my intelligence.  I don't need a sign telling me hot coffee will burn me. This is why we have parents, to teach us common sense.
 I wish after McDonalds had the law suit against them for the hot coffee incident they had filed a counter suit against the parents of the plaintiff because they raised an idiot.
 What I see when I read safety warnings is, "Bless your little heart, you are just so stupid so we will spell it out for you"
 I have a Ruger revolver in 44 mag that had the Adobe "read me file" on the barrel so I turned it down to remove it, it looks so much better, like a gun is supposed to look. If you have to have a safety warning let it say in the owners manual, "If you are too stupid this will kill or injure you" end of warning.
 Why would a person see a power saw cut wood or steel and not realize it will cut your fingers off. If a person does not have the mental capacity to operate machinery do you really think they have the mental capacity read and understand a warning?
  I tend to believe we play God by issuing safety warnings, did God put a sign or hand rail on a cliff to stop people from falling off ?  No he intended for us to either have common sense and make good choices or have parents to protect us when we were children.
In the same vein I think instructions in this country should be printed in English only, If I was in Germany I would expect instructions in German only.
  If I had my way the only Spanish (or any other language) in the instructions would be " These instructions are in English, if you cant read them you stand a good chance of being maimed or killed" 
I love freedom and don't need the government mandating safety warnings via OSHA or any other agency. I also realize companies print warnings to protect from law suits however this is the product of our government run schools indoctrination centers that teach kids nothing is your fault it's the big evil companies who are endangering you. I have a novel idea, lets teach kids if you step out in front of a car you will get run over and killed, but no, we put flashers on school buses to stop traffic so kids learn they are so important everyone will cater to them.... and you really wonder how we have raised a generation of self centered people who think like the Occupy Wall Street crowd.  
  I don't prescribe to a lot of conspiracy theories however I do think there is a plan via the government brainwashing centers to breed a whole generation of government dependents who think they belong to government and the government always knows best. I guess the next election will reveal if we have reached the tipping point and the government has created enough dependents and non-thinkers to gain total control.
