You really have a twisted way of viewing things. I didn't say they should take away the right to sue. Did I? No. I am saying it seems like we Americans think if we don't like something, rather than do something about it, we hire an attorney.
There is definitely a place for litigation, however, not every place is for litigation. There should be a line drawn somewhere.
If I sell hot coffee, I shouldn't have to worry about my FREEDOM being taken away by some clumsily person who spills it on themselves. Use your freedom to not be a dipstick and be careful with what you already know is HOT coffee.
This lady who was burnt, it could have been a sincere injury. But if I cut my arm with a knife, I don't think that gives me the right to sue the manufacturer. Just the same, if someone robs you and you cause them physical pain, I don't think it's right that the burglar can sue YOU for said harm. Don't laugh, it has happened many times.
I think if you started reading my comments as non-extremist, you'd have a better understanding of me. I am neither extreme in any direction. I fluctuate based on what I learn and through experiences.
