Drunk Gets Millions After Being Hit By Train
What is this country coming to? A drunk in NY has been awarded almost $2.5 million after losing his leg when he was hit by a subway train. Incredibly, the jury found him only 35% responsible for being hit. Hello out there. If you’re on the tracks, drunk or not, YOU are 100% responsible for being hit by a train.
When I see lunacy like this, though not surprising given the locale, I wonder where our sense of personal responsibility has gone. Then I remember–these are the same folks who are crying about being upside down in a mortgage on a home they couldn’t afford to begin with and want those of us who are responsible to bail them out. Bet every one of those jurors votes 100% Democrat.
