   Good on them for reaching the correct decision. It’s unfortunate that she hurt herself, but it’s not the government’s job to provide safeguards to prevent people from every situation that they could accidentally hurt themselves.

   No one will take responsibility for their actions anymore. They always want to blame someone else and sue for a windfall. You’re responsible for yourself at times people!

   #3 – Boy, you’ve got that right. I had a situation recently where I was told I had a case and could get a lot of money with a lawsuit. I just laughed. I told the person who told me that I had zero plan of suing anyone for anything. It’d just all be a giant waist of time for me. Even if I won a hundred gazillion $s, it wouldn’t change the way I live in anyway. Way, way to late for any of that dumb stuff for me.

   Yes that’s all true to an extent. I think if a company knowingly makes a faulty product and someone is either seriously injured or killed as a result, you should be able to sue for damages.
   If you’re on a bus or a train or in a limo or a cab and the operator is drunk and the company knew it he was an alcoholic and he gets in an accident and leaves you permanently disabled, you should be able to sue.
   If a large manufacturer deliberately dumps carcinogenic materials for years into the river and then it leaches into the water supply causing a spike in cancer among the local population, you should be able to sue.
   If you are molested as a child by a superior (like a priest or a teacher or a rabbi or an assistant college football coach) and the religious or educational institution knew that the person was a pedophile and did nothing about it, you should be able to sue.
   But if you spill hot coffee on yourself or don’t look where you’re walking on the boardwalk or you trip on your shoelace, no, you shouldn’t be able to sue.
   Yes, it’s gotten over the top with the litigations but let’s remember the right to sue for damages is a powerful tool in the consumer protection tool box.

   Will the public be notified which 23 spots are allotted for public parking in Dee Pee Pee’s monstrosity at 10th and RR. He stole that lot from the taxpayers and commuters. Mayor, will there be a sign put saying public parking? If not, how else would anyone know? Please explain.

   He didn’t steal it. He paid $150k for it. I guess there were no other bidders. Oh, I forgot, there was no bidding process. They should both be in jail.
