Shoveling sidewalks not required?

I can't believe anyone, let alone a whole bunch of people, are giving any credence whatsoever to this whole, "you can be sued if you shovel your sidewalks so don't do it" nonsense.

I'm sorry to pop off, and I'm not going after you specifically, but it's just beyond stupid.

I was shoveling my walk (in your neck of the woods) Tuesday morning and for some reason known only to god, my teenage son decided it was fun to help me shovel that morning so we decided we'd try and do the whole block, him going one direction, me going the other and see who could get to the end first. We each had people come out and tell us not to shovel in front of their houses. I mean, what in the actual fuck?
