You can't swing a dead cat without hitting one

Statistics from www.downwithpinatas.com:

1. Since 1992 the Humane Society and the Department of Fish and Game have documented 480,000 incidents of pinata related violence against animals.
2. Most pinata related attacks occur within 48 hours of a child attending a pinata party.
3. The average of a perpetrator who engages in pinata related violence: 8.
4. Over 75% of violent offenders in the California prison system have actively participated in the bashing of a pinata.
5. An estimated 60,000 adults will be attacked by their children with a bat or stick following a pinata party this year.
6. Despite clear links between violent behavior and pinatas, California public schools continue to include pinatas in grade school festivities.
7. You are 10 times more likely to be the victim of pinata related violence than a terrorist attack.
8. Legislation to ban pinatas has been proposed in 32 states. So far none have passed because legislators dismiss the risk.

HAHAHA this is absolutely hilarious. The statistics in bold are my favorites.
