Wise words from Stephen but I have a different view on one point: What we do is not safe and probably will never be safe.

As Stephen points out, you’re playing Russian roulette if bad decisions are made.

Humans seem to find all kinds of ways to die, even during activities which would normally be considered “safe” by most. People die driving, swimming, hiking, walking across the street, even just voicing an opinion (to the wrong person)! Before we do or say anything, we should be thinking ahead and understanding the consequences of whatever actions we plan to take. Gotta know the dangers and heed the warnings.
