The family of 24-year-old Jessica Ghawi, a victim in the 2012 movie theater shooting in Aurora, Colorado, is faced with more than $200,000 in legal costs after a federal judge ordered them to pay attorney’s fees for four ammunition dealers the family attempted to sue.
“They have taken our daughter, and now they want to take our worldly goods,” Lonnie Phillips told MSNBC’s Tamron Hall in a televised interview earlier this week. “I think that’s a little much.” |

“They have taken our daughter, and now they want to take our worldly goods,”
It's enough to make one glad these people's capacity to generate grandchildren has been diminished.
Ammunition dealers are responsible for Jessica's death in the same way gas stations are responsible for a guy driving his car through a playground full of children. In other words, not at all responsible. |

Serves them right. The ammo dealers were not responsible for the death. This was nothing more than a political stunt. They had to know that they were costing uninvolved parties thousands of dollars in legal fees.
I'm sure their lawyer advised them of the possible consequences. If he didn't they should sue the lawyer for malpractice. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
