Not all staff members are dangerous but background checks are a good thing. I think all props should be scrutinized Edited July 5, 2018 by FTNK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PamahoNow Posted July 5, 2018 Author Share Posted July 5, 2018 1 minute ago, FTNK said: Not all staff members are dangerous but background checks are a good thing In this case, the hasty generalization would be "some staff members are dangerous" to "all staff members are dangerous". Which is not true and I don't think you believe it. This move is what you did above with respect to props. From "One prop is dangerous" to "All props are dangerous". More acceptable would be something like you did here. From "One prop is dangerous" to "We should examine all props for danger." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We couldn't figure out the "purpose" of the teeter totter. Could someone please explain what its purpose/symbolism is .

I think all props should be scrutinized I believe I read the recent emphasis on MM safety also extends to performance on the field. I'm sure DCI is watching all use of props (hopefully to include tarps) and will step in if they see something amiss. We really don't know anything about safety conversations between DCI and Corps that may (or may not) have already taken place this season. Have you heard differently?

I've only been to one show, so I don't know what most of them look like. Bluecoats: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
