Sounds like my table saw. Only "guard" is the operator using common
sense. This equipment should only be used by men raised before diving
boards were removed from public pools, swings removed from playgrounds,
horseshoe pits replaced with Corn hole crap and so on.

Millennials, raised in the home on digital games by hand wringing
mothers, are finding Pokemon too dangerous as the pantywaists are forced
to actually walk around loose, walking into cars and what-not.

They should not be allowed near power tools, particularly anything sharp
that is not 110% safe with every guard known to man, wearing chain-link
suits of armor, gas masks for dust, giant helmets with bullet proof face
masks and built in ear muffs, and the tools should instantly slam to a
stop if they even think about putting a pinky in danger.

And they should definitely stay off your lawn, right Jack.
