I'd be great at stand up but you Republicans would probably give me the Lenny Bruce, Redd Foxx and George Carlin treatment.

Here's my favorite former preacher turned comic doing what I think is his best bit. Enjoy.

The 7 words you can't say on TV.......I liked Carlin

The 7 words you can't say on TV.......I liked Carlin

George Carlin was great. Did you know that the IRS was fvcking him up the azz the last decade or so of his life for back taxes? His accountant had screwed him over and the IRS wanted the money. Surprisingly as far as I know he never went after the IRS for this.

The government has a nasty history of driving great standups to an early grave.

You CAN sue the car company - it is up to the jury to decide if you win or not.

With guns the republicans decided that you LOSE if you plan on suing a gun company. They don't trust a jury of their fellow Americans to determine the facts of the case.
No, you can't sue the car company unless it was through their negligence

He was great. Louis Black is now the next best thing.

You most certainly can sue. It's up to a jury to decide if it was through their negligence.

We're done here.
We now live in a sue happy country, spill hot coffee on yourself sue, etc/etc
it's why everything we purchase cost more due to the damn warnings needed to be placed on the product to avoid lawsuits......Lawsuits are now a Lottery if can be won.

Why are you posting questions to Self.....................that's pure insanity
I guess you couldn’t figure out that that was directed to you.

Or you figured it out but you wanted to dodge the question.

Pretty sad either way.

You want to sue a Mosque for allowing Terrorist in their buildings? Go ahead, that is legal.

You CAN sue any other type of company for it's product being misused? Go ahead, that is legal.

Can you sue a car manufacturer be sued when a police cruiser hits and kills people? Go ahead, that is legal.


The only time you can't sue is gun manufacturers. They get special treatment. Why? Because republicans are in the pockets of the NRA and don't trust the judgement of their fellow Americans.

In every instance you mentioned people are allowed to sue. That doesn't mean that they will win. It means that they get a chance for a jury of their peers to look at the facts and determine the outcome.

Republicans don't go for that because they are scum that do not trust the American people to determine what is fair. No other reason.

Even your own example show that the republicans are protecting ONLY the gun and ammo manufacturers.

Ok, enough with this dumb shit.

There is no way in hell you are this dumb. You couldn't be, otherwise you wouldn't be here, you would have died long ago having forgotten how to fukin' breath.

Being I agree you are not unintelligent the only reason you persist in trying to argue this feeble-assed, at BEST, completely futile most likely, position is your unhealthy fear of others exercising a right you hate so I am going to lay this out so that even a hard core gunaphobic can not dispute.

If, as you maintain, this law is a case of the republicans protecting ONLY the gun and ammo manufacturers, that would be because they are the only product manufacturers who NEED such a law!

See, the long and short of it is, these are the only couple of industries lunatics on the left actively, openly seek to destroy in order to destroy the Bill of Rights that they have been so unsuccessful at changing to suit their personal desires. If this ever works THEN there will be other industries that they feel will help wipeout something else they dislike that will need protection.

You like saying people COULD sue the gasoline manufacturer whose fuel propelled a vehicle into a crowd, that they are not protected by law, right? Well, that is because no one would ever think to do such a thing, let alone that it would hold up in court. No one in their right mind would even think of doing that.

For example, if you went to the emergency room after a light bulb you shoved up your ass for shits & giggles shattered and cut up your gizzard, would you or your family really try to sue GE because you used their product and you "could"?

No.

If you or your boy friend contracted Aides would you or your families sue the Rainbow Coalition because the way they marketed their gay pride parade played on your emotions and made you think it would be so cool to be gay, just because you "could" I mean?

No.


So, AGAIN, you know what this is really all about. I know what this is really all about. And worst of all for YOU is that you know that I too know.

As I said previously, stop pussy-footin' around, man the fuk up and just own this shit.
I will still disagree, I will still not like it, but at least I could respect you for taking a position and sticking with it to the end.

If the gun is working correctly, then you should LOSE! Manufacturers can only be liable for the performance of their products, not their usage.

This is great news. Republicans claim that they want everyone to be treated equally. They don't. They want special protections for gun manufacturers and ammunition manufacturers.

If you are hurt in a car accident you can sue the car company. A jury of your peers will decide if the car company was negligent or if the driver of the car is wholly responsible. That's fair.

A jury should be able to decide the same things when a gun is involved.

Republicans don't like that idea. Why do republicans hate the idea of a jury deciding right and wrong?
Unless there was a defect in the gun, the shooter is wholly liable. Anything else is wrong.

The NRA/GOP ran a protection racket for the gun industry, passing laws to shield them from liability. Now that's coming to an end. Good.
