        Because real life has consequences, he didn’t follow safety rules and ignored what he was told. He was 2 months from 18, I’m guessing you would have just magically changed your mind had he lost his hand 2 months later?

          No! I would have thought that a callous system left a young man fucking mangled. What a horrible world view you have. He was trying to do his job, poorly, sure, but he didn’t deserve to lose a hand over it. There should have been safety procedures, and literal children shouldn’t have to work such dangerous jobs while they learn about the real world.

      You’ve got the dumbest takes imaginable. As if it’s okay for any age to have such shitty safety process control that someone could lose a hand by doing what is surely a very low wage job.

        Lol says the guy who probably hasn’t actually done any physical labor in their life. You white picket fence types are hilarious. The dude was told not to put his hands in it and fafo. Do you even know what goes on in a factory or a farm or a construction site? Tons of jobs are dangerous if you don’t follow safety.

        13 isn’t legal, 16 is legal. I’m confused here, are you suggesting that 16 year olds shouldn’t be allowed to hold summer jobs?

          I’m confused, are you suggesting that it is good when the animal industry kills 16 year old kids for profit and your cheap meat?

            Are you suggesting that it’s somehow worse when it’s a 16 year old and not the fact that someone died?

              Are you suggesting they should kill kids younger than 16? I work in hazardous environment and there are many machines and tools where you are required to be of legal age and in many cases have had training with those tools. Using kids to operate deadly machinery, especially if its a holiday job and kill or mutilate them on a regular basis would not fly in my industry. Maybe yours is tougher and I look like a crybaby to you but most of you who don’t give a shit don’t stay very long.
