 For some reason, the news people thought it would be appropriate to crop his picture at the neck This is quite a story, and the more you learn, the crazier it gets. Especially the media response and the backstory, it's just  So this bible-toting Republican State Representative, Scott Schwab who has repeatedly voted to screw over people on welfare, disenfranchise voters, and made it far more difficult for women in Kansas to acquire abortions and birth control, experienced a little "birth control" of his own when he took his kids to the Schlitterbahn waterpark in Kansas City, Kansas. quote:Verruckt — which in German means "insane" — features multi-person rafts that make a 168-foot drop at speeds of up to 70 mph, followed by a surge up a hump and a 50-foot descent to a finishing pool. Since the accident, investigators have removed netting that was held in place by supports above the 50-foot section from the hump to the finishing pool. The bible-thumping family were actually going to give the Schlitterbahn a miss on the day after church, but the sun came out at just the right time and they decided to head out. Little Caleb and his brother wanted to ride together, but the weight requirement meant they had to ride with 2 strangers instead. This led the precocious young scamp to say this to a worker at the park: quote:“The little boy said to a worker, ‘I just saw my little brother die because of one of your attractions Fortunately, for all of you who need to get the skinny on this story and don't have the time to do your own research, Heavy.com has the Five Fast Facts You NEED to Know! Of course their neighbours and friends gave some powerful words of sympathy to the family quote:“As a baseball family there are no words to describe the pain in our hearts to lose one of our baseball brothers However, you'll all be pleased to hear that Kansas kept to its strong belief in the power of free market capitalism - The park reopened less than 72 hours after the accident. quote:The park reopened Wednesday, except for a large section that includes the waterslide. Although its towering profile greets visitors as they drive through the entrance, access to Verruckt is blocked by a 7-foot-high wooden fence. Hey, decapitated kids don't keep the lights on! And Kansas needs all the money it can get these days. with governor Sam Brownback and the state's legislature backing Tea Party policies that have ravaged the state's economy and finances. quote:Pulling a cooler behind her, 42-year-old Sara Craig said she was a bit uneasy bringing her 14-year-old son, Cale, and one of his 13-year-old friends to the park Wednesday.

vols bitch posted:i too am liberal scum that is happy that a person from a different political party lost a child in a bizarre accident lol 1) I'm voting Trump biznitch (although I was a Sanders supporter before shilldawg won) 2) I'm not happy that they lost a child it's just....so loving hosed THE gently caress UP everything about it. The decapitation, the random German names, the bible-thumping state rep., the brother lackadaisically telling the worker he just watched his bro die on their ride. The waterpark actually REOPENING less than 3 days later. People ACTUALLY ATTENDING THE WATERPARK after it reopened 3 days later. A white trash lady dragging a cooler of natty light behind her while her kids swim yards away from where the child of one of the people keeping her dumb and impoverished was beheaded mere hours ago. Fuckin' Kansas. The Saurus fucked around with this message at 11:49 on Aug 12, 2016 |

As it is he's probably siphoned all the interest about this towards his crappy thread but had such a low effort OP that it didn't become hilarious and full of photoshops and gifs of the kids head bouncing around and flying off into orbit and stuff.

The Saurus- I'm with the Society for Excellence in OPs, a 501c3 organization that fosters and promotes outstanding Original Posts. I wanted to inform you that you've been nominated for our annual "opie" award which recognizes the year's most informative and timely OP. Your 'Republican State Rep's child decapitated on the World's Tallest Waterslide' post was submitted numerous times to our review board. I speak for the board, as well as myself, when I say that it was one of the finest works of original posting we've seen. Please let me know if you'll be able to attend our awards ceremony, held this year on Dec. 15th in Opolis, Kansas. Thanks! -Anthrovore

the best part of the story is the one witness's description where she saw the slide come down with only two people on it, then the boy's headless body floating behind with a trail of blood
