NEW YORK, July 3 (UPI) -- A New York woman is suing Starbucks, saying her baby son was seriously injured when she dropped a cup of overly hot tea on him.

In a complaint filed Friday in Kings County, Villona Maryash said the scalding took place in a Starbucks in the Bensonhurst neighborhood in Brooklyn in October, the New York Post reported.

She shouldn’t have held it over and dropped it on her baby.

CHILD ABUSE!

She’s just trying to cover her own incompetence. Take that baby away.

What, you mean you aren’t in the habit of dangling near-boiling water over an infant?

Hopefully, it will be thrown out. The woman’s clearly not competent to be walking around with children.

“when she picked up the tea and then dropped it”

Those are the only pertinent facts in the case were I on the jury. We have to stop subsidizing lazy, stupid and criminally litigious people.

If you’re that clumsy, you ought to be buying iced tea.

Stupid, greedy cow. Let’s hope she’s shot down on this.
