“Gun Death” More Trains

The green solution for global warming and evil capitalism are also dangerous!

A teen boy was struck and killed by a train Thursday morning, railroad investigators said.

…According to Joe Faust, the director of public affairs for Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad, the incident occurred as the teen walked westbound on the railroad tracks while wearing a backpack and headphones.

I bet the headphones played a part! Walking on the tracks is generally a stupid move, doing so without the ability to properly hear is REALLY stupid!

Still, it isn’t a “Gun Death” so we shouldn’t be concerned, or want to ban trains, headphones or walking on the tracks (which is probably already a crime).
