If your plumbing were broken, would you sue the water company? If you or a loved one were hit by a drunk driver, would you sue the car manufacturer? If you eat McDonald’s and Taco Bell for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, would you then turn around and sue your doctor after they advise your cholesterol, blood pressure, and weight are through the roof?
It does not make sense why these frivolous lawsuits continue to pop up. Adults need to stop blaming others and should be held accountable for their own actions.
A perfect example of this is when a white supremacist went on a shooting rampage in the San Fernando Valley. Now anyone can understand the families of the victims would be hurt and confused. In this case, the family members did not direct their anger towards the coward who took their loved ones lives. Instead, they filed a lawsuit against the major gun manufacturers claiming they deliberately over saturated the market with guns… resulting in unsavory sales practices… which ultimately made a gun available to this psycho Nazi, among others… wheeew.
Fortunately, the Federal Appeals Court dismissed the claims for damages.
