Our Government Total Lack Of Ignorance Caused This Death.

June And July Of 2017 Has been the deadliest and most injury months of any year concerning parades.  We fully point the finger at our public safety leaders who has ignored the NTSB recommendations way back in 2014 and ours for over 12 years now.
Most Government Localities lack " lack clear planning procedures and rules for parades"  So why does so many Government and Insurance companies try so hard to prevent our cause from saving lives?
