Where are the town halls for banning backyard pools??? No back yard pool has EVER been used to stop or deter a crime. It's time for lawmakers and the pool lobby to answer some tough questions regarding these back yard death machines! And, I recently found out, there are ZERO regulations on who can buy a pool, they even have little ones in the toy section at Walmart!!!!

I had to bounce around to a few pages to get all the numbers, but it all came from cdc.gov
