#1 Death by KSH (Kart spooling hijab). Teaching point - Mind things that make raucous sounds and spin wildly

#2 police removed the go-kart from the site and were examining it mechanically and forensically

Looking for signs of satanic possession or a malign djinn? Operating machinery while wearing loose, floppy clothing is dangerously stupid. I'm surprised the kart track let her do it.

#3 I'm surprised the kart track let her do it.

And get sued for being anti-muslim?

#4 this is divine justice for as the late Ayatollah Khomeini said,

"Allah did not create man so that he could have fun. The aim of creation was for mankind to be put to the test through hardship and prayer. An Islamic regime must be serious in every field. There are no jokes in Islam. There is no humor in Islam. There is no fun in Islam. There can be no fun and joy in whatever is serious. Islam does not allow swimming in the sea and is opposed to radio and television serials. Islam, however, allows marksmanship, horseback riding and competition."

see note 73 on the wikipedia article on Khomeini

#5 Not to sound too insensitive but....if the husband had a knife with him, would he have cut her free and saved her life? To do so might have caused some of her skin to be exposed in public...makes me think of the time the Islamists sent the girls back into the burning building to get their burkas on lest they be seen outside in an immodest state.

People never learn, do they?

#9 Chemist: it sounds to me as if her neck had been broken in the accident.

#10 Operating machinery while wearing loose, floppy clothing is dangerously stupid.

An Indian man in our neighborhood often mows his lawn in a dhoti (sari-like thingy).

I keep thinking ... it's just a matter of time...

#12 Its a sad day when common sense is overridden by reality.

I am a family man, and I feel for the family, I really do. Some people have seen where flesh meets physics and it must have been graphic and ignorant in hindsight. But ed at #3 has it exactly right - behold action and consequence!

#17 I always thought that the decal B & S meant Briggs and Stratton;
evidently it means something else entirely ( rhymes with Urka and Wrangled)

#18 at 14 yrs old did a neck chock at -20F on my go-cart with the long stocking caps popular about 1969.
Got lucky when it jammed the cyntrypical clutch.
learned the lose clothes lesson.
