"Safety" for Chilluns

We all know, with moral certainty, that swingsets sitting on unvarnished earth are simply unsafe.

Particularly that unvarnished earth part.

So we cover up the earth with "safe" stuff.

As we noted around this time last summer, New York City “has spent large sums installing black rubber safety mats beneath the equipment on its 1,000 playgrounds, but the mats get hot in the summer, and some kids are suffering burns which have resulted in lawsuits.”

Making the swingsets safe for the Trial Lawyer crowd.
