I'm surprized most of you don't see any problems with the fact that you are attacking someone who knows more about crocodiles and their safety zones than you, for putting his OWN child in what YOU perceive as danger, but he doesn't. There are several problems here:
1)The prosecutors (or should I say persecutors) act as if they know more about what was happening in that croc pen than Mr.Irwin does, which is not necessarily true.
2)Most of you put your child into equal or greater danger on a daily basis via the presence of small household objects to choke on, junk food to clog their arteries, and car trips that put your child's life in the hands of YOUR driving skills! I guess I better accuse you all of possibly being bad drivers, just like Irwin here is being accused of possibly being a bad crocodile handler.
3)Dangling a baby out of the window is different from taking a baby on a risky job with a professional on hand. Those childrens' groups seem to lack the common sense to see a difference.
Bah.
PS: I'm an American citizen, and I do not perceive Australians to be anything like Steve Irwin. I think he's pretty funny, and makes his shows interesting to watch. As for the rest of the Aussie population, everyone knows they get around in Kangaroo pouches (or outrageously tricked-out cars, with spikes and guns), and wear mostly leather and oversize boots.
