Cars are not only dangerous pieces of high-speed heavy metal and glass, but they are also toxic factories!!
The founder of an animal rescue organization in Ohio committed suicide, taking dozens of pets with her, the Moreland Hills Police Department told CNN.
Sandy Lertzman, 62, founder of the Animal Rights Foundation, was found dead November 4 inside her garage in a running car alongside 31 small rescue dogs, police said.
Investigators found prescription vials in the vehicle and a suicide note inside the house.
According to Sgt. Janet Boehler, a friend discovered Lertzman’s body. It is unclear how long Lertzman and the pets had been dead before they were found. Lertzman was last seen alive November 3.
I have no issue with suicide except for the selfish nature of it, and the pain it inflicts to those left behind. According to her organization website, she leaves behind a husband and son. Still it strikes me as strange that somebody who cares for dogs will include them in her very personal and permanent decision.
Still “Gun Death” zealots NEED to include suicides in their numbers because otherwise “Gun Death” isn’t all that big of a number. Still cars are such a readily accessible suicide method that common sense regulation should be considered.
Who am I kidding? Only “Gun Death” counts, so let anybody have a car and do as much damage as they want!

The photo of the remains of Paul Walker’s Porche last weekend pops to mind, too. It’s obvious that cars are dangerous for several reasons.
