Paging John Edwards!

We need tort reform STAT!!

http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=stor...tuna_lawsuit_1

Little girl cuts her finger on a tuna can and her WHOLE FAMILY is suing StarKist.

Quote:
Blanco-Ortega and her family then filed separate lawsuits in federal court against Star-Kist Foods Inc. The girl's suit alleged physical damages and pain and suffering; the relatives claimed emotional distress after seeing the girl's anguish.

Beatriz Blanco-Ortega, then 9, was at school in Puerto Rico when she cut her finger on the tuna can and bled profusely for nearly 30 minutes.
Blame the idiot who gave her a can of tuna instead of a sandwich.

I guess it's a good thing we can't sue God for creating dumb asses. We would have to start to double or triple our weekly offerings.

(no, i'm not calling you a dumb ass. Just in general concerning these lawsuits)

I say we tithe their azzes to a stake and let the public beatings commence to smack some common sense in 'em!

This is right up there with the chic spilling her coffee in her lap and suing McD's. I hope her inner thighs have scars that scare men off for that crap!
