Hey cool guy! I take my COBRA to car show 3 to 4 times a year and I let kids climb in while their parents take photos. They get their little hands all over my machine and with a little bit of elbow work – my machine cleans right up. I spend about $800 bucks a year having it detailed and its garaged most of the time except when I'm out on a COBRA run with my buddies. Most of us have replica COBRAS and some of us have grand children. Yep I do! If I was there while you were whining about your car because a 2 ½ year touched it, you would probably found your butt in a local dumpster. Nous Defions and De Opresso Liber cool guy and if you want to get together some time – give me a jingle.

If you like letting other people's kids climb all over your car, Try the local Romp Around, you'll love it!
You sound like a real " hands on" kinda guy spending $800 a year on "detailing". Are those runs off road?
Enjoy!

A Poll
This thread has generated a wide magin of opinions and responses. 
Some folks don't have an issue with the subject, others share commonality in an opinion.
I added a POLL as a quick tool to evaluate your stance, and it provides anonymity if you don't care to post a response to the thread.

Don't need a poll.
If I pull *my* Cobra into a car show and a 2 year old is hopping around near *my* hot sidepipes, then I will express my opinion and I dare ANYONE to throw my butt into a dumpster. Period.

Why is it that some morons feel the need to make threats of violence on these forums?

Uh oh! Looks like you just got threatened by a Special Forces/Mercenary badass. Probably ought to be shaking in your shoes, packing up your ClubCobra account and leaving the internets.
Fortunately, not a single special forces guy that I know(and I know a bunch) would even consider some sort of internet thuggery. They don't make threats unless they fully intend to back them up, right then and there. So I am guessing we got a wannabe here.

You know I'm so jealous of the guy that posted that latin quote, is it latin right?
We never had a saying in Naval Special Warfare Command. All we had was our insignia. An eagle holding a trident, a US Navy anchor, and a cocked flintlock pistol. Each one has a meaning.
I have children too and as I stated before it's a reflection on the parent.
Look at this one the girl was only seven years old and died. Just imagine a two year old not being supervised properly by it's parents.
