From the “You Gotta Be Kidding” File: Walmart Black Friday Pepper Sprayer Threatens Lawsuit

Another frivolous lawsuit may be brought before the court. Remember Elizabeth Macias? She’s the nutjob that pepper sprayed shoppers in Walmart so they wouldn’t get near an Xbox that she wanted. Here’s a refresher:

Well guess what? Elizabeth wants to sue Walmart because she claims there wasn’t enough security at the store. Excuse me?

from ABC News:

A California woman who won’t face felony charges for pepper spraying Black Friday Walmart shoppers is considering a lawsuit claiming that the national retailer didn’t provide enough security for the post-Thanksgiving shopping spree.

It’s time to thin the herd. The stupid have clearly overpopulated again. Just another example of why the other 49 states should join Texas in enacting “loser pays” to help put a stop to these frivolous lawsuits.

I’ll even do one better. We should have something called “Ambulance Chaser laws” that would disbar attorney’s if they bring frivolous lawsuits like this to the courts. Just a thought, and a damned good one too, I might add.
