Exactly.
What we learned this week is that by putting humans in direct proximity to the shallows in the waterways where the alligators live:
Humans are feeding the alligators and making them unafraid of people and looking to us as a food source.
Humans are being enticed to gather at night time events in the very places they are most vulnerable to the largest population of alligators in WDW history.
And only a tragic death of a child makes Disney finally break down and do the right thing, put up signs that are good for their guests but bad for business. I'll never look at Disney or their management the same way again. They have lost my trust and the trust of millions of visitors who never, not once, ever thought they were putting their little ones at risk.
I think loss of trust in Disney is much less than millions of visitors. Even in a great tragedy as this, people will forget just as they did about the little boy on the bike or the child that drowned at the art of animation pool. Some won't go back, others will take their place.
Since you don't want to go back and you have certainly made the reasons very clear why even continue discussing this. You are not going to change anyone's mind. Either they are going back or upset like you and are not. You just seem to be making yourself more upset.
But I can assure you regardless of where you vacation, you will never be completely free of danger, known or unknown.
