I wish they’d ban the whole concept of “punitive damages”. It strikes me as ex post facto.

Agreed. It’s not like Walmart set a trap for him.

“punitive damages”

I never heard of such a thing in my youth.

I grew up in New York State.

I believe it originated in the Southern states.

It still strikes me as an obnoxious concept.
