News Flash....they are already broke. That tends to be the reason most migrants risk their lives crossing over...They are looking for work.

Ok, well then I hope the legal costs put them in debt so that they become bonded laborers and have to work off their debt to society for wasting our money on this stupid crap.

happy?

Better yet, I hope if there is a god he gets word of this and strikes them all dead with some kind of uber-powerful bitch smack.

family seeks lawsuit against God for making ice too cold. lady that burned herself with McDonald's coffe and sued, to lead legal team.

The McDonald's case had a legitimate basis - educate yourself before you mouth off using half-facts.

Uh no. Perhaps you should educate yourself first. What kind of brain dead idiot puts a cup of hot coffee between her legs while driving a motor vehicle?

But... But... The coffee cup didn't say it was hot! It could have been iced coffee, for all she knew!

I lived in New Mexico and Arizona for years. You would NOT believe the amount of illegal immigrants there are. The borders need to be tightened.

If this lawsuit succeeds all it will do is either force the US to seal the border or put water stations and make sure the border crossers don?t die or get hurt. I would hope they do something like put a wall and maybe the National Guard on the border. If we can?t control who comes in who is to say some terrorist hasn?t walked across?


Where I live in Il there is a company that hires a lot of illegal aliens. Every few months they get busted and have to hire other people. When I was 18 I worked for them for about 2 months then was laid off. They hired a bunch of illegal aliens for $5 an hour when I was getting paid $9.
 
she wasn't driving the fvcking car, and the coffee was found to be 180-190 degrees. at that temperature, it can cause 3rd degree burns in as little as 2 seconds. it doesn't matter if it was on a table or she was trying to balance the damn cup on her head, there was no reason for the coffee to be anywhere near that hot. mcdonalds even admitted that "its coffee is 'not fit for consumption' when sold because it causes severe scalds if spilled or drunk," and hundreds of other people received burns from spilled coffee, too. any logical person would conclude that even though it was her fault she spilled the coffee on herself, it should not have caused 3rd degree burns.

oh, and i found the piece about the voting machine repairs to be the worst of all of the ones on that page.
 
I cannot believe people are siding with illegal immigrants who decided to cross the desert without adequate preparation, and then died as a result. Yes, my family came here through imigration from Europe. Legally. On a god damn ship. They didn't try and swim here and then sue the US for not having boats out in the Atlantic to rescue them. It's not an issue of race, it is an issue of those Mexicans were morons. I'm from the Midwest, a place none too abundant with deserts, but I know better than to try and cross one without adequate water. And don't give me that, "oh, they are just poor immigrants trying to make a better life for themselves" crap. Yes, they are. And doing it illegally by sneaking across the desert is taking a big chance. The US is under no obligation at all to assist illegal immigrants doing stupid things.
 
Actually the water stations aren't for human use.
Immigrants have no business using those routes, and regardless of how sh!tty their living conditions are, that doesn't give them carte blanche to waltz in to our country illegally and leech off our system.

They can immigrate legally like everyone else.


I totally agree.

This thread sucks. I can't believe someone is defending these stupid people in this thread.

I can't believe the amount of hate and self-righteousness bigotry that is spewing out of adults in these times. You know its one thing to say that the lawsuit is wrong, and it is another to denigrate a group of people that have given their lives in search of prosperity. Their predicament is obviously not fathomed by many of you, as you sit before your computer, in an air-conditioned well lit room with a running water toilet down the hall; probably while you are getting paid for your 'deserved and well-earned' degree for cruising ATOT.

Start a thread about 'stupid' people fleeing oppressing third-world conditions, whether it be Mexico, Central America, Cuba, South America, China, Africa, North Korea, Thailand, or any other, and I'll defend their very bold and risky behavior.

That's just my rant. 😉

How does that constitute idiocy? If you're talking about tort reform, yes, that should occur. But how can the actual court decision pinning culpability on McDonald's be construed as "idiocy"?

<Sorry for the thread hijack>
In a nutshell: Hot coffee is made by boiling water. Anyone who drinks coffee, and certainly someone who is 79 years old and has likely made coffee herself, knows this. Boiling water can burn you badly.

See the connection? Coffee -> Boiling water -> Burn - BE CAREFUL! This is not rocket science here.

The plaintiff failed to exercise common sense and care. Coffee should not be purchased by stupid people. You should not stop chainsaws with your hand. Do not place a ladder on top of a frozen manure pile in the early morning, on a day where the temperature is scheduled to rise above freezing. You should not have to have someone hold your hand and tell you this.

the lawsuit is baseless.
nearly every one of us is here because a forefather risked life through sea or desert to be american.

While the rest were dragged over against their wills and forced to work labor or die. Some were also tricked.

So... why is it alright for them to enter illegally again? You make a case for one group of people entering illegally... even though their doing so makes it harder for other immigrants to enter LEGALLY. Why do Mexicans have more right to enter our country than Europeans, or Chinese? Yes, we are the greatest country in the world. A LOT of people wish they lived here... but not everybody can. There's only so many people we can accomodate, so why do you feel that these Mexicans deserve more than anybody else who's trying to enter? Cubans die all the time trying to get to Florida.. I guess it's racist of us because we don't have Destroyers out there escorting them to port.

The only racism and bigotry I am seeng here is from you. You have the impression that these people are entitled to something because their lives suck. Yes, I have a wonderfully comfortable lifestyle compared to them. You know why? Because my ancestors came here LEGALLY a long time ago and worked their asses off so that I could have it. They weren't entitled to anything, they followed the law and did just fine. Stop trying to play the sympathy card... not everybody in the world can have the same lifestyle as us. It just won't work.
