It's not his fault, it's someone elses fault! bahhhh.

Our society has a tendency to look for excuses and to lay blame on someone else. I figure that comes directly from our legal system and those who perpetuate it (lawyers).
Whatever happened to personal accountability?
I can say I wasn't raised that way. Just about every good thing that has happened to me I earned. Just about every bad thing that has happened to me I deserved.
Is that so hard to say? No, it just takes a little bit of character and pride in the fact that you are an honest person and you do the right thing.

I was completely pissed last week when I found out that two people I supported both financially and with prayer filed suit against the city of dana point because they knew they could get big bucks.
The people I'm talking about are the two joggers that were hit by a drunk driver and are now paralyzed.
The drunk driver didn't have any money so they decided to blame the deep pockets, the city where it happened. SHAME ON THEM! they went after the easy money.
Sure they need it.
Sure life with the money will be easier. sure something bad happened to them.
But I will no longer have anything to do with them now that they are suing the city of dana point for having "an unsafe street".
I detest people who do that and the lawers who talk them into it and help them lie. I detest the stupid bleeding hearts who sit on the juries and award crazy sums of money to people who don't deserve it and from organizations that are not to blame.
The fault of their incident is as follows: they decided to go jogging on a busy street. thier decision.
A drunk driver swerved and hit them. He screwed up.
that's it.
Can someone please tell me how the people who live in dana point contributed to their accident? Please explain to me why the good citizens of that city will have to give these two women millions of dollars just because something happened to them that the people of dana point had absolutely nothing to do with?
it makes me sick.
THE CIVIL COURTS ARE NOT YOUR PERSONAL LOTTERY!
