152. What about being Responsible Humans for their actions?
These 3 guys are/were to have been "experts" climbers. These men should have had Mountain Climbing Beacons. The Beacons only cost 5 big huge bucks to rent. That is equivalent to a meal at Burger King. So because there are Liberals that want people to be a little responsible for their actions that is wrong? No-one is saying not to save these men. But they should have know better for being "Experts". MT Hood is a mountain that has taken many lives and many people have gotten lost there. Again it doesn't cost a arm or a leg to rent a Beacon. From a Liberal Oregonian that says: Please; if you decided to climb MT. Hood, Please oh Please rent a Beacon. Its just a little extra insurance besides your cell phone. Do it for your families. I would not wat to be in the shoes of these families that have their guys up that mountain lost. Just thinking about the one death already if enough to make me sick. I feel sorry for these people and my heart goes out to them but again Mountain climbing is just a sport and like any other sport people should have the right equipment, like a Beacon. Just 5 bucks to rent one out.

:cry:
