People can and do accidentally get decapitated daily. Tall people have
more risk than others, but everyone can, and may get their heads removed
at any moment.

Why isn't something being done about this? All it takes is a simple
cage type housing over the fan's blades, to prevent these unnecessary
deaths. I think it's time for everyone who has lost a friend or
relative due to ceiling fan decapitation to file a lawsuit against the
companies that manufacture these killing devices. Either put them out
of business, or FORCE them to make safe fans.

More people die from ceiling fans on a yearly basis, than people die
from guns. Yet all we hear about is banning guns. How about banning
ceiling fans until they can be made safe....

Ban The Fan !!!

There are 7.5 billion people on the entire earth so I'm not sure how 80% die each year from ceiling fans

Absolutely. Just last week in this forum I pointed out that in the
summer they just blow the hot air near t he ceiling down to where the
people are.

Now I learn that the people are likely to be dead. Decapitated. A
terrible way to die.

Ban The Fan !!!

First ban them during the summer. Make them be removed each May.
People will tolerate that. Then over the summer, make it iilegal to put
them back. A regulation like that won't seem so bad. We know what's
best for them. It's amazing that with this much death, the fannies
still believe in fans.

Fake news.
