The Arm Hair Defense

#1 Post by themanintheseersuckersuit » Thu Sep 18, 2014 7:59 am

I once defended a lawsuit using the crescent wrench defense. The accident was caused by the passenger hitting the driver over the head with a crescent wrench. I am glad I don't have this one.
BOISE, Idaho – A SUV full of teenagers crashed in Idaho after one of the passengers lit the driver's armpit hair on fire with a lighter, authorities said Wednesday.

All five young people in the Ford Bronco were hurt in the crash Sunday and received medical treatment, the Ada County Sheriff's Office said.

Suitguy is not bitter.

feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive

The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.

I don't blame you. Defending this case would really be the pits. --Bob
