There are so many frivolous lawsuits. Fortunately our legislation in the US seems to be aware of this and attempting to combat it. It's just people thinking they can get rich quick by suing the pants off someone else. Lame. Well it seems to me that way too! There are so many frivolous lawsuits.

But recently there are so many lawsuits going on in both States and Canada that Europeans think that we are all suing each other here for every little thing.

A while back there were lawyers who were suing small businesses for not having disabled parking close to the front of the parking lot, which, true, this didn't conform to the Americans with Disabilities Act. These lawyers did not have clients (no one came to them and said, "I'm having problems with this business because I have to walk too far") and that's how laws were passed to deal with this unscrupulous behavior. It seems Mr. Crookes (how appropriate) is just seeing how far he can get and how much money he can make before people pay him no mind.

I could never understand people who crave negative publicity to get some fame. Ronald, isn't it how things usually start - there's always someone who initializes the change. Joey, if you get sued for your comment, I'll too be liable for approving your comment on my blog. I sure hope Canadian legislature adjusts and improves its libel laws.

It drives me absolutely nuts. Open the phone book and you will see more listings for attorneys than anything else. Maybe I should have said 'seems like' or actually counted them in my phonebook just in case somebody wants to sue me for this comment. I think society has gone lawyer happy.

The blog posts could be 100% correct, but since this guy doesn't like the comments made against him, he is using is legal bullying to apply censorship to those who's only defense is their blogs.

Is that a publicity grab? Let's stop talking about him like we should stop talking about that self-proclaimed dot-com mogul. This is shocking and ridiculous. Is that a publicity grab?
