    Disney officials told the Orlando Sentinel (http://bit.ly/2aLV0t9 ) for a story published Sunday that the barrier wall is part of the new security plan following the death of 2-year-old Lane Graves of Omaha, Nebraska. The boulder wall is going up along the beaches of the Seven Seas Lagoon where several resorts are located.

    Disney also put up warning signs and ropes after Graves was dragged by an alligator into the lake on June 14. The boy’s body was found 16 hours later and an autopsy showed he died from drowning and traumatic injuries.

    The family decided not to file a lawsuit against Disney.

    But that’s discriminatory against the alligators, based on the false assumption that ALL alligators are vicious child-killers. Not voting for them in the 2016 elections.

    Where were those momzarim at Disney for the lasty 45 years? The park and hotels were opened in 1971, and they had plenty of warning about danger in the past. Yidden should boycott Disney attractions, as the Disney Company has never been a friend to us. The late Walter Disney would mock Jews, with a Yiddish accent.

    If you have to watch for alligators then it’s going to be too late. Idiots. Perhaps a “do not enter” sign would have been better.
