Members diddlybo Posted July 5, 2012 Members Share Posted July 5, 2012 Its not florida that's out of control its the legal system and attornies. You have to be careful these days when doing a good deed. There might be an asshole with a law degree waiting around the corner ready to sue you into poverty.

However, his lifeguard stand had an area that it covered and the person drowning was not in that area. He was probably on a public beach and the person was in front of a hotel. However, it is not like there are fences between the two beaches. Anyone can use any beach, unless it is in a private neighborhood and on someone's property, that is Florida law. That was not the case here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members madDdog67 Posted July 6, 2012 Members Share Posted July 6, 2012 A teacher at my high school pulled a man out of a burning car he thought might explode, it did. He saved the man's life, but the man sued him claiming that he seriously injured his back by pulling him from the car. The man won a judgement in the millions against the teacher. The teacher quit his job and decided to never work again, rather than have his wages severely garnished forever. Most states have "good samaritan" laws that protect people from lawsuits like this. In a perfect world, your teacher would hunt that piece of {censored} down, douse him with gas, set fire to him, and wave the severed head of his wife/girlfriend in front of him as he shrieked his last desperate breaths out .

Part of the problem is that everyone has gone sue happy for things that should be common sense. I think it's stupid that they fired the lifeguard for saving a drowning man and at the same time I understand where they're coming from. In a world where you can sue McD for hot coffee I can't blame businesses for trying to protect themselves from the (stupid) people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
