Sean just keep Brett on a short leash, He will eat your profits

They have turned a profit since I was retained!!

Not to take anything away from the seriousness of the thread but I came down to Daytona for the weekend and Lollipops is still rockin' as usual!!! Nice to see Razzle's is updated as well.

Rumpshaker never knew you were Lollipop's Sean - I shoulda hit you up for the OSO hook-up! LOL :evilb:

BoatMe, there is the fatal flaw in your arguement ....

You can't stand in Mike's SHOES.....

Unfounded lawsuits should be thrown out, looking to get compensated for a life altering act of negligence from another party is entirely different.

Here's a pretty simple test ( and Mike I hope you don't mind me using you as an example, but we all know your situation)

Ask Mike if he wishes the "accident" never happened?
Ask the driver the same question.
I'll bet you both answers are the same.
Now which one had the power to control the outcome originally?

Arguing that monetary compensation for pain and suffering should be abolished is midlessly insensitive and downright moronic. The only conceivable cause for someone wanting another to not be compensated for damage done by another can only be some hyper-avarice run amok. Either that or having been on the receiving end of one of these judgments. A thousand years ago, it was an eye for an eye- literally. We've civilized since then but the concepts are still valid. What other way is there to compensate someone who's been harmed?

I'm not suggesting that juries don't make faulty awards- the woman and the hot coffee at McDonalds is one. Yet I find no similarity there. The other might be someone being awarded a hundred-million dollars for pain & suffering which is an example of justice gone wrong.

What we really need is professional jury panels. The only way you'll ever see a "jury of your peers" is if you're really bored at work or not bright enough to dodge it.

I hope Mike posts pictures of before , during and after his accident. He didn't get rich after his accident but he deserved something to make his life easier after the terrible accident he was in. Those of you that have not gone through what he did have no idea.

no one is arguing Mike went through alot. Seeing pictures wont change my opinion
I drove wrecker back when i was young and I have seen plenty I dont want to see again. This does not change my opinion

but these days everytime something happens someone else wants to be paid for it

I had an accident when i was 18 I pulled out in front of someone (Couldnt see past a snow bank) It was my fault and we both got hurt

My Insurance paid for my stuff and the guy that I pulled out in front of had his insurance pay for his repairs and medical (No Fault State) I got a ticket from the police End of story

Today i would be sued till i bled my last penny

I didnt mean to hurt him (or myself for that matter)

certianly nothing like Mikes situation but you get my point

Where does it stop?

As most know we have been involved in a lawsuit over the death of two people at our poker run 2 years ago The family wants Many Many Many Millions of dollars from the driver and throttle man, as a result the driver and throttle man sued us for not keeping them from being sued


It never stops just keep looking for a lottery and guarantees

There are no guarantees in life
Jail is were people should go if they screw up

Insurance should be there to pay for the actual damage and rehab. Suing for a large sum of money demeans the point

Again this is just my opinion And i have no problem discussing this as long as it doesn't get nasty

Good points of view are always welcome and Mike has the best seat on the bench from where to speak. but I do not need to loose a leg to have the right to my opinion, nor to share it. Because i havent lost a limb or been disabled does not make me right or wrong

I wish the best for you Mike

BoatMe, I think this is one of those internet board things that will take many posts to figure out what we could have figured out together between our first and second beer .... :D

That's how it should be handled, but what happens if the person you hit didn't have enough insurance to cover his medical bills, he needs to sue to protect himself right, not set up his children's children for life, but take care of his day to day expenses...

I am not a big drinker (I have one once in a while)

But i would rather have MILK LOL
Can you live with that ????? :D

[QUOTE=boatme;2366370]
Which leg did you loose?

Because i have never been shot in the head does not mean i can not have a veiw point on how it would effect my life

as I said Mike has the best seat to speak from but he dosent have the only seat

Brett I meant eating the dancers you homo

So she has commited perjury on top of causing the accident, but none of that matters because she doesn't have deep pockets.

She goes free by someone conveincing her to make up a story thereby creating the trail towards the money.

:mad::mad:

And 12 idiots believed her. :mad:

That's the biggest flaw with our system today. Look around, I have a hard time pointing out many 'peers' amongst the general population.

hopefully , the appeals process will do it's job!

[QUOTE=boatme;2366370]As long as it's 2%, none of that skim milk here...

Qoute Chris,,, or not bright enough to dodge it !!!!

there-in lies the problem ,,, I don't think we need professional jury's ,,, but we do need all people to do there duty !! Not give excuses and be to busy ,,,, Our system's are broken people ,, its time to get involved and fix them!!

RHC

What we really need is the judges and our court system to do their job before these bozo law suits even make it to trial. How the heck could someone be allowed to sue the bar when there was no DUI or evidence of her working there. It would be nice to have professional jurors but even better if we had judges with balls that could cut through the BS suits from the legit ones.

I was sued once on a BS charge and even the judge told the other party they had little likelihood of winning but she still allowed me to spend thousands fighting it, only to wind up with the same outcome. However I still have a firm belief that if you harmed through negligence you should be allowed. There are accidents that are true accidents but there are negligent ones as well, it would be nice if a judge could sort that out before allowing it to get in front of the jury.

yep ,, I agree Ian,,, the system is still broke ,,, there is no accountablity ,,, try to get some one in Gov to make a decision about anything ! won't happen ,, you will get referred to another dept .. who still does not know !!

RHC

Hey that's MS PatriYacht to you:D

OOOOooppps ,,, sorry ,,, well my other choice was "KIRBY":D:drink:

Happy, happy to you and yours ,,,, Hope its good for all !!!

Roger and Stef

Huh????

I was hoping you could decipher Brett. I figured it must have been in leagalese.:eek:

I thought the consensus was that this guy was entitled to pain and suffereing, however the club should not have been laible, the girl that hit him should and she should be in jail.
