I want to strangle the @#$%!@ legislators who made it harder for me to breathe. I have to present ID, sign and can only buy 48 tablets per week of a medicine that I take on a regular basis. I would actually be better off if they made it prescription only again.
Let’s sue the oil companies because people use gasoline as an accelerant in arson fires.
Let’s sue cutlery manufacturers because people use their products in stabbings.
Let’s sue axe manufacturers because people misuse those too.
FReeper lawyers, won’t you help? The gummint needs the money.
An invalid legal argument then and still is.
That one's going to be hard to prove unless plaintiff(s) have quite the paper trail.
Watch out Elmer’s and 3M, you’re next!
The possibilities are endless.
Oil producers knowingly sell fuel to criminals.
Ah, time for law school.
I am unsure what I think about this.
New Zealand has, apparently, the highest per-capita production and use of Methamphetamine in the world. Most of what is manufactured in NZ is made in West Auckland, where I live. It is a huge problem.
Who to sue? Obviously, if possible, sue the crooks. If they can catch them, that is. And if they can get at their assets. Much easier said than done, but something that needs to be done.
Sue the Pharmaceutical companies, for producing a product that can be used in a hazardous fashion? Hmmmm... not too sure about that one. Methamphetamine has been around since WW-II, so there has been plenty of time for the pharmaceutical companies to figure out how to deliver ~ephedrine in a manner that it can’t easily be chemically extracted by Meth cooks. This hasn’t been done, for some reason.
It should definitely be prescription-only.
I’m going to have to think about it, and develop my opinion based on the content of this thread. For the moment I have an open mind on the subject...
I see we are still on the road of stupidity.
lawyers trying to expand the circle of “proximate cause”
they are taking cause and effect to absurdity,
why not sue the truck drivers carrying the legal medicine?
why not sue the traffic light maker for creating a green light that allowed the truck to move through the streets?
So I assume you can sue anyone who uses steel since you can make a knife from the steel...
The nutters never sleep.
In some respects, I feel the pharmeceutical industry has a hand in this to force the price up and increase their profits.
I’m going to sue Victoria’s Secret because.....well you know why.
If you go about three paragraphs down the original item, you’ll discover the court threw out the claim.
End the failed war on some drugs.
these people are crazy a lot of us have bad allergies so we are being punished for what law enforcement does not do! I guess the fascist traffic ticket business is their number one job.
