Looks like the little sheep is mad at her sheep dog. I wonder why she didn't sue the wolves parents for raising such a @#$%^&.

Look at the Poll. Out of 888 people who voted, 23 sided against the cop. Isn't that about the same percentage of the population that are lawyers?  :P

Welcome to America where you have the right to bare arms and sue anyone, company/individual you want! Just looking for the big payoff!

More laws arent needed. We need lawyers with morals who won't take cases like this and judges who won't hear them.

On the surface it sounds crazy, but I don't know the whole story so I am not going to pass judgement.  That is what the court system is for.  Too many times the public jumps to a conclusion without knowing any of the facts, and the press prints a story without knowing all the facts.
