Learn to read the entire argument, not just pieces of it before flaming. I have pulled dead people out of rollover accidents involving SUV's... whether you have or not. The whole point of the argument is the fact that all of this seat belt preaching is not reaching your target audience, and is doing nothing but putting hot sauce and salt in the fresh wounds of the families suffering through this tragedy. I have been in their shoes, knock it off and show a little bit of compassion.
Crykad, my heart and sympathies go out to you and your families. Jackie was a close friend of mine, as is Chris. If I could take your pain away, I would, but know this, it does get easier, it just won't completely go away.
I digress, first of all, had they been wearing seat belts there most likely would have been 5 fatalities (I only learned this through experience working as an EMT at many MVC scenes).
Secondly, everyone blamed old people driving, and seat belts (which were worn btw) when my grandfather got killed by a speeding cop in '94, (not the cop going 125 mph through a school zone, who also left the scene of the accident).
Thirdly, leave these people alone, they have enough to deal with, without coming on here to "SEAT BELT" crap. Repetition has it's place, but not here, at least not at this time, you're not even going to reach your target audience. Go to a school and preach, let these people mourn.
