I just don't know, I mean its not like they are making people eat the stuff, but at the same time its not like they couldn't spend a little of their money to find a healthier way. This is gonna be kind of amusing to watch now that I think about it

This is such bullshit. As long as people have access to the knowledge of how KFC (or any restaurant, for that matter) prepares their food and has access to the nutritional information of what they're eating, it should be up to them whether or not to eat it, and the company shouldn't be sued for making people fat and unhealthy.

If that's the case, what's to stop kids from suing their parents for giving them bad eating habits?

Whatever happened to personal responsibility?

And then the guy who put hi R.V. on cruise control, left the wheel to get something to drink, wrecked, sued the manufacturer for not labling that cruise control didn't mean auto drive

The McDonald's thing yes, but I never heard they won. I thought they had a tough time proving they had a case because the lawyers had to prove that McDonald's marketing strategy indicated that one should eat, and only eat, McDonald's food.

Are you sure they just didn't win that portion of the case, and not the actual case itself?

Here's the point - you're looking at affirmative action, and you're looking at marijuana. You legalize marijuana, no need for quotas, because really, who's gonna wanna work?

They might have settled out of court, I honestly didn't follow it too closely, and some of the info was second hand. But you must remember this was following the old lady who sued mcdonalds because she spilled hot coffee in her lap

Right, right. And I studied that case concerning the old man and the R.V. in college...I can't remember his name, but he had a valid case. The dealer who sold it to him explained to him, more or less, that "Cruise control enables the vehicle to drive by itself."

His fault for making a stupid assumption. I'm pretty sure the owner's manual has a description of cruise control, if he even bothered to read the damn thing.
