50 Million Windows Shades are being recalled, because it resulted in, perhaps 8 deaths - and 16 injuries.
.
If you buy the upper limit of this - 24 - that makes the chances of getting hurt 24 in 50 million or roughly 0.00004%.
.
If that is now the criteria then the following should be banned.
- Flying any commercial flight.
- Driving any car
- Bees
- Hippos
- Lightening
- Moving Sidewalks
- Bicycles
-Horseback riding
- Walking
- Jogging
- Democrats
- Republicans
- Joe Liberman (who will cause a lot more than 8 deaths even if you only consider heart attacks after listening to him).
.
This 50 MILLION only includes this recall. They have previously recalled 75million other shades with drawstrings.
.
Please write your congressman to outlaw Hippos since more Americans are killed by them than by window shades - which are a threat to life and limb.
