Jury awards parents $27 million in McDonald's negligence lawsuit
I read this:

Quote:
“Alcohol and consumption of alcohol by teenagers was the root cause,” Murphy said. “I’m not going to do a disservice to anyone and agree to some alternate reality.”

The jury awarded

$11 million to Whitaker and $11 million to the Crisps for past and future loss of companionship and mental anguish, in addition to $5 million for the pain and mental anguish suffered by Ward, money legally bound for Whitaker.
Drunk teens. And McDonalds was liable.

No, give fair and balanced coverage to all. Did that occur to you?

Sure, let's just ignore black on white crime, because they are entitled to "payback."

Yes, get over it. It's the nursing a long-ago past that feeds the riots and demonstrations in Ferguson and elsewhere, with agitators who capitalize on it. People become a mindless, out-of-control mob, out for revenge for 'the past'.

No clue what this rant is about. Here's the situation in a nutshell:

It happened in 2012.

After an evening of drinking 4 kids hit a Mc Donald's for food and toilet. Two went inside to use the facilities and 2 went thru the drive thru. The two on foot got caught up in a brawl. Instead of calling 911, the two in the car put the two injured kids into the car and sped off to a hospital. The driver ran a red light and was hit by oncoming traffic. None were wearing seat belts so it was not pretty.

Litigation tends to follow the money so the parents of the dead kids sued McDonalds. And the jury obviously concurred that Mc Donalds needs to pay. McDonalds will appeal.

This is not about race.

Sharpton has been anything but quiet.

Brawl? What brawl? The "brawl" didn't start until the white kid got sucker punched by a black kid! The mob (all black) that attacked the kids (all white) were the reason the Male died. The Female (his girlfriend) died due to her attempt in saving the kids life by bringing him to the hospital. Without the kid getting attacked by the mob, they wouldn't have been forced to rush him to the hospital. The girls did what most people would do if they were in the same situation and that was to get out of the area ASAP and take the dying boyfriends to the hospital.

Your attempts at minimizing this event and efforts to put all of the blame on the victims is disgusting.
