Shari this is neither what you or I think. This is what the judge or a jury believe in a legal argument or have you not ever heard of the “Twinkie Defense”

I would also not believe Any Jury would award $2.7 million to a plaintiff for getting burned with hot coffee because the coffee cup was not labeled hot.

So once again you are mistaken my suggestion do not go on what you think but go on what is on the record as facts based on judgments, also is common sense really so common?

Thoughtful response. Still, I can’t agree with you. I don’t think ANYONE going into a bar wanting a mixed drink might accidentally ask for beer. It defies common sense.

Well buddy if history of foul mouth ex preachers come into play your future is bright!

One of the greatest comedians that has ever lived IMHO was Sam Kinison a former Pentecostal preacher and you sure have the same spark!

“An emotional mob will bring change faster than a room for of sweaty-assed lawyers.”

Agree! But I would make one change “An emotional mob directed in the right path will bring change faster than a room for of sweaty-assed lawyers.”

This indeed is a wonderful country my friend in some countries I would had been picked up and shot for writing this post

Allyn,
You might be free now but maybe not at the end of this administration’s tenure. They want to silence all radio and TV that disagrees with them. Guys like you won;t be far behind. This ain’t the America it once was that you love so much.

Wow, what a great convo going on here! Well, I have to say that my background comes from being trained as a Baptist preacher …so my thinking is based on privately interpreted facts (scripture) delivered (preached) with an air of emotion to convey the point! (think that sums up my vid minus the cussing, my former pastor is turning over in his grave) LOL
As i stated before, I live in the emotion of many moments. I think that real change comes from stirring people’s hearts to action, not reasoning with them on the rule of law. An emotional mob will bring change faster than a room for of sweaty-assed lawyers.
To each his own, and that is why I do love our country so much because i am free to speak out in my own way and share my beliefs with like-minded people… and in the end, we can all sit together and drink beers together! (but not Monster Energy Drinks)

Yeah it is cool as heck but if it was a problem to read and also crash firefox it was time to face reality.

I totally agree buddy now this story get’s picked up by a big media and it would be a different story then again these large sites also want the advertising dollar so you never know.

I still believe if a social push was made for tort reform for the long haul it would be so much better but of course the liberals would do as they have done in the past and kill it.

In the future if when I actually have time I would love to get something going but for now it is all about getting the business and my responsibilities in order.

Thanks for getting rid on the script font script Vic, it was crashing Firefox on me.

I do think that Hansen management will disengage the IP law firm they’re using soon because it’s making them look bad. Vermonster isn’t the only company or individual they’ve gone after since mid-September.

Since most of their stock price is based on them being a glamor growth stock maintaining a good public image. What would really hurt them would be negative business press that indicated that they were losing the 12-18 youth market due to bad PR moves. When this kind of bad PR happens, analyst start reviewing a stock with a more critical eye and all the original romance goes away.

It probably does illustrate a lot about what you say about social media not being effective in the long haul. In this case, the real target should be the business press, like Motley Fool and so forth. That would really hurt them by scaring off investors where they can probably more or less ignore YouTube videos up to a point.
