I are so smart. S-M-R-T!!

If they win this lawsuit we might as well tear down all the buildings in the country.

Your dumbass son tried to jump from the top of one building to another. The city should sue him for the clean up of him splatting the ground.

Now with poll.

He should jump head-first next time and save the rest of the world from a lot of wasted time.

if it was an accident, then there MIGHT be room to complain. Like if it was unsafe and one wrong step ment falling 8 stories.


but they were doing this crap ON PURPOSE. Wtf? How could a judge side with such foolishness.

The family says that's not good enough and that both garages need to take responsibility before a garage jumper loses his life.
'

wow

i have to say if my son is ever stupid enough to jump off of a 8 story building, onto an adjacent 8 story building ....well then he must have broken the chains that kept his stupid ass at the house; because if he was that damn dumb in the first place i wouldn't let him outside alone.

Since Bargfrede fell, the City of Orlando erected a partial fence but there's still room for someone to take a dangerous dive.

The family says that's not good enough and that both garages need to take responsibility before a garage jumper loses his life.
How about the idiot doing the jumping taking responsibility? It's a revolutionary concept nowadays, I know, but it just might work.

If that kid was me about 5 years ago, my dad would have waited till I was better from my injuries, then thrown my ass out of the house for being such a dumbass. Yea, it's the city and the property owner's fault for being a dipsh!t. God what morons.

"I don't think we recognized it before as a danger," Vennero said.

There are no safety fences in place on the parking garage.

D'Assaro is filing a lawsuit against the city of Orlando and the private garage owner for making little effort to correct a potential deadly risk.

"There was a very, very short length of fence that was completely ineffective in preventing this from happening," D'Assaro said.


If the wind or something blew a guy over a short wall, then maybe I can see someone suing the building owner for negligence. But when an idiot makes a conscious effort to jump over a fence and onto another building, how is it the building owners fault? The idiot's family is saying that the building owner did nothing to prevent this from happening, but when it's a human being making a conscious effort to avert safety measures and put himself at risk, it's HIS damn fault. How can you blame someone else for it?

So, just so we're clear... I can start juggling knives, cut off my hand, and then sue the knife manufacturer, right? It's obviously their fault.

I hadn't thought of that. Time to start filling in the Grand Canyon.

The next mofo to jump on the roof of my house will be shot down by a pair of double barrel shotguns.

How about your kids taking responsibility for thier own moronic actions! If kids start dashing across busy streets for thrills I think Orlando should shutdown all public roadways or reduce the speed limit to 10mph to accomodate the glue sniffing idiots they call citizens.

I can't believe that the City has to pay for peoples' stupidity.
What a horrible world we live in...

In order for there to be sane, completely awesome folk like me around, there must be an equal concentration of insane, moronic folk around. One cannot be had without the other. You could not get rid of all the insane, moronic folk around anymore than you could get rid of Night or Day.
