Mini essay- position statement

       Throughout the years many incidents have been happening when viewing
Hawaii's natural attractions. Guests have been killed or seriously injured due to not being aware of the dangers of visiting new places in Hawaii. The controversy occurred over who's responsibility it is to keep our guests safe, The visitors responsibility to watch over themselves or the landowners responsibility to make sure they are aware of the dangers they face. The state cannot be held responsible for any lack of common sense the guests have and it's impossible for the state to know every hazardous point of every attraction. It is the tourist's responsibility to be cautious of their surroundings. 
      Visitors should have more common sense when visiting Hawaii's attractions. It is not the landowners job to babysit the visitors, they should be responsible for themselves. David Potts,44 of  San anselmo was dancing around the blowhole when a large wave struck him from behind and knocked him into the hole. Even though there was a hand painted sign in the parking lot that read " Blowhole: park and walk at your own risk" this sign was ignored. 
        In conclusion, Visitors should be in charge of their own safety and life. Everywhere in the world is dangerous and landowners can't protect you from every dangerous attraction, it's their job to be pre cautious about their surroundings.You can't blame the landowners for the guests responsibilities.
