You have to have some safety rules. But like Shiffrin who skied yesterday in the parrallel slalom, it is up to the individual. She has previously not skied in that event because she felt it is dangerous, But she did it to help Team USA win a medal. Alas, they didn't, but it wasn't for lack of trying

No- the mountain seems to cater to out of control skiers and boarders who zoom dangerously close to downhill skiers, sometimes even brushing against them. Slow skiing zones are not enforced. Other resorts follow a "15 foot rule" which is the space that is supposed to be give to others.

Can they do anything about the tree wells up at my bachelor?

I think it's up to the individual. There's a risk to these sports.

Winter sports have always been dangerous. If a person wants to take that chance its up to them.

j sanders

Almost all sports have an element of danger. The participant is always taking a risk from which no one can protect them.

Rick Allen

You have to take responsibility for your own actions. We do not need or want the government or business telling us what to do or not to do!

Michael Miller

If a person is willing to participate in risky sports they generally should shoulder the risks themselves.

Kenneth Emmrich

When you engage in a high risk activity you have to expect that there is no guarantee for safety. The individual needs to accept the responsibilities and negative consequences of those activities.

It will help those who want to be helped, but the percentage of those is unknown. Those with mental illness and/or drug addictions need help with those issues first before they can appreciate a safer place to live.

Lynn Huntley

As long as they are managed by responsible people to help the people living there.

Shamra D Wampler

Absolutely! I do not think people should be allowed to live there for more than a couple of years, until they are on their feet though. They can then move to low income housing, and move up from there. A lot of this is needed, and it works. Look at how much it helped in Utah! It saved a lot of money

It will help keep them off the streets and causing trouble

Unless you screen them you'll end up with addicts and free loaders instead of people who need and want to be helped to get back on their feet.

Sussie Due

As long as we continue to support them they will never get back on their feet and work at many of the 1000's of jobs available out there.

Robert Northrup

You can't give people anything. They will destroy it because they don't care.

Kenneth Emmrich

The vast majority of homeless people want to be homeless. It is like a badge of honor for them. The more you do for the homeless the more there will be. The dogooders are creating another society of dependents. How has LBJ's "Great Society" worked out?
