    Big Gunns isn't gonna quote everyone and comment on what they said. BG does think you should be able to sue for certain things in this country, but this one is crazy. If this one goes through, Big Gunns is suing the government because it didn't protect him from all those mosquitoes that bite his perfect bod.:D BG always heard you can't sue the government, so he's actually interested to see how this turns out. In some cases(not this one) you should be able to sue in BG's opinion.

    As far as all the frivolous lawsuits are concerned. All they do is cost everyone money. Companies need more insurance to protect themselves and they pass that cost on to you. Big Gunns is always amazed when he goes to another country the things that he sees. Some of these things that are no big deal really, he knows would never be allowed in the states for insurance reasons.

    The government can't protect it's people from every danger in the world....and it should stop trying. Big Gunns has said this before and he'll say it again. Do you believe that when it's your time to go, there's nothing you can do about it? If you believe this (listen up lawmakers) then passing a law to make something safer(seatbelts...etc...) shouldn't change anything. When it's your time...it's your time...if you believe that. That's just one of those "things that make you go HMMMMM".


    What people need is more "personal responsibility". BG isn't saying he would never sue, but sometimes you really need to ask just who's fault was it. The real problem is that it's hard for someone not to sue when a lawyer promises them millions. BG can completely understand.

    Whoever...BG ain't going back to see right now....that said McDondals must have done something bad in the past to become such a big company(paraphrasing) so they should be sued is really making a reeee****culous comment. Come on....leave old Ronnie Mc'D alone. BG loves his McNuggets.:D

    By the way. BG eats fast food all the time, and except for the times when he gets a leeetle lazy(rarely), it didn't hurt BG's bod. It's all moderation people. Don't blame McDonalds.

    I know that the coffee one is a story everybody laughs at, but there's nothing funny about 3rd degree burns to your crotch. The fact is that McDonalds wasn't selling hot coffee. They were selling coffee that was literally so hot it was dangerous. I wouldn't want anyone selling me ice cream that gave me frostbite and made me lose my tongue trying to eat it either, but I bet if I did and sued for it, people would laugh at me too.

    BG understands that she should be able to sue the owner, but not the state.

    Although, BG doesn't have all the facts yet. If she came in the house and took this Chimp out without permission, she does have some responsibility in what happened. It doesn't matter if the Chimp knew her and everything was fine before.

    Ice cream will give your tongue frostbite. Keep holding new ice cream on your tongue for an hour and BG bets you'll lose it.:D

    Don't worry I agree completely on this one, I was just pointing out that we shouldn't give this lady too much crap, her life has been totally completely ruined. If I lost my entire face including my eyes, (and had her HANDS ripped off from what I heard?!) I'd probably kill myself. Screw lawsuits, no amount of money can bring her to normality.

    lol too true I suppose, I guess I was picturing more 'ice cream at 0 kelvin' instantaneously freezing and destroying any human tissue it comes in contact with.

    Im going to get a thermometer and test how hot our coffee is, and get back to you guys. Im curious to see how hot ours is when we first make it! :)

    this is regular coffee that we serve every day.

    BG does feel sorry for this women and you're right...no money can compensate her. BG wants all the facts though to see exactly what happened. You can't believe what the news says.

    A guy in Florida that has Cougars just had some people attacked at his place last year. He was set up at the show next to us and he got a call from Fish and Game that a girl was attacked at his place. Apparently the neighbor, who had been there before, let her in the cage. In this case, BG isn't sure who's fault it is. The neighbor was not supposed to be there...... Not sure whatever happened. You can google this incident.
