I don't know if you've heard about this, but there is a group of people that are sueing McDonalds because of their fat kids. They are blaming a fast food chain for their children being lazy fat-asses. Does anyone else find this at least a little disturbing?

As bad as it sounds these people will probaly win. You can sue anyone these days and get whatever you want, for no real reason at all.
There kids are too fat. Damn, it'll be hilarious to watch that case, as these 400 lb parents watch their fat ass kids take the stand... |

Yeah, Groff gave us examples of how different states react to crimes with different punishments.
Somewhere on the east coast, a robber broke into a house. The guy asleep upstairs got a baseball bat when he heard the noise and went to investigate. When the robber saw him, he attacked the homeowner, so the guy hit him with the bat, knocked him out, and called the cops. The robber sued for assault or some shit and won an assload of money... Then again, in Texas, a guy came home on his lunch break and found his wife fucking some other guy in their bedroom. Without them knowing he was home, we went into his closet, got his shotgun, and killed his wife and the guy fucking her. He got taken to court, of course, and was charged with firing a weapon within city limits...and got off with a fine. Goodtimes... |

yeah the east coast courts are pretty fucked up here are 2 stories to prove it....
a little girl was eating at an outdoor restauraunt. While eating, a bee stung her, so as a result the girls family sued the restaurant. They managed to prove that the bee sting caused the girl emotional and physical pain, and was able to get 2 million from the restaurant. in new york, a man who was dead drunk at the time tired to get on a moving bus. When the bus hit him, the man sued the bus company for 1 million since the bus driver did not stop in time. |

it's stupid to sue people for idiotic things. everyone is looking for a reason to get easy money b/c their too lazy to work hard for it. there are exceptions of course like the lottery, and gambling. but to sue someone for a couple million b/c you just feel like it...it's stupid.
i've heard a story like orgazmo's but a little different. a robber broke into a person's house stole a few things than took a step out of the house when the homeowner shot him in the leg. the thief sued the guy for shooting him and claimed that he was simply walking on the guys property and won throwing the homeowner in jail. after hearing that i asked around to find out what the rule on that is. i guess if someone robs you and you attack him inside your house it's legal, but as soon as he takes a step outside of your house you can't touch him or it's assult, even though he's on your property....our world is fucking messed up with gay ass rules like that. if someone is going to steal something in my house i'm going to beat the shit out of him no matter where he's at on my property. |
