“If you own a gun and have a swimming pool in the yard, the swimming pool is almost 100 times more likely to kill a child than the gun is.”
Steven D. Levitt, quoted in Inside the Astonishingly Curious Mind of Steven D. Levitt by Stephen J. Dubner (2003).
Ah, reminds me of the “attractive nuisance doctrine”

Which is what a swimming pool is to children and why so many states insist that you put a fence around yours.
Pools don’t kill people, water does.
Besides, anyone who watched 90210 knows these numbers simply don’t add up.
