The Assassin Game Time and Safety

It is that time of year again. The assassin game is beginning. Running stop signs, driving crazy and generally risking one's life for the thrill on seeing the X on Facebook seems a bit foolish.

Jumping in front of cars, hanging out the windows, shooting and driving are all reckless activities that are going to get someone injured. The rule makers of this strange activity need to put rules in place that insure the safety of its players. There are parts of the happenings that just are too dangerous. The last thing would be to get some seriously harmed -- and even more harmed than 27 stitches in the leg.

If there is some innate reason to follow this path, then perhaps a Saturday at a park makes more sense. Put rules in place that protect the players and the surrounding innocent people. Being in cars, jumping into the streets and hurling oneself over concrete and walks and stairs can't be safe.

Let's have a safe and sane spring,
