When did our society decide that you’re not responsible for your own actions?  Why are there so many frivolous lawsuits?  It’s obviously because no one is forced to be responsible for their own actions.
You have the classics like McDonalds coffee is actually hot or robbers who sue their would-be-victims.
This one is priceless.  A cheerleader is filing suit […]

Oh Snap!

You’ve got to wonder how much longer this will continue. A lot of people bemoan the cruelty to animals involved with bullfighting, but it’s the harm to people that will eventually kill this tradition.
