It happens unfortunately . And the lawyer gets the tons of moneyBlegh. Gross.
I bet you these people were suckered in by some sly lawyer who is promising them tons of money.
Sad.
And you say you’re not a lefty.Supreme Court already set the precedent that the police have no legal requirement to protect people. Back the blue!
That said this is ambulance chasing at it's worst.
And you say you’re not a lefty.
As always, it’s not as simple as it seems or as the NY Times wants to make it. It’s because they ruled on Constiutionality and SC precedent. The Constitution is written to limit government’s ability to do things, not to mandate action. So, they followed an earlier precedent that the Constitution did not imbue the Government with a mandate to enforce a restraining order. This is so that police forces and governments maintain discretion to enforce orders or not based on circumstance at the time rather than blindly enforce an order with no context.WTF does a 100% factual statement have to do with my political views?
