serpentracer Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 yes I agree. I hate smokers and all but come on, you damn well know that shit can kill you. it's not something that is made up by doctors its a scientific fact.this country should be ashamed of lawsuits like this. they shouldn't get one dime.so if this guy gets money, who else is entitled for some? are they going to sue the farmers too???

Not Dark Yet Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 are they going to sue the farmers too???It's interesting that the jury separated the percentage of responsibility between the tobacco company and the smoker. What about the store that sold her the cigs? By this standard, are they not partially responsible? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is why I don't make in on a jury............ I tend to not agree with all th e PC bulls**t and piss people off. wootsame here, but because i was young (20 i think) you bet they picked me on the jury and since everyone else there was so passive i took lead as well.PCness is over rated... i hear ya on that. But there is no way PM shouldnt be to blame! :wtf:sure there is no way. there's enough education from DARE to surgeon generals warning that no one in the country picks up a cigarette without knowing full well what the risks are. and this lady could have gotten cancer at 70 from something else anyway.
