so to summarize, my dad showed me an article in our local paper, the kitsap sun. ill sum it up like this:
a woman in seattle sued her neighbor because his dog killed her cat. the guy had to go to jail for 21 days and do 3 months of house arrest... then the woman took him to court and won 45000 dollars because it was so special to her because she found the cat in israel. then at the end of this article shes quoted saying "i didnt go to court to get money. i could either burn his house down or i could go and shoot his dogs in front of him and shoot him, or i could shoot myself. so i decided to be rational and get a lawyer."

You know, for all the guns America has lying around, they sure don't seem to be shooting the right people.
Case in point, this insane rabid bitch and the braindead twat of a judge that ruled in her favour.

I work with a lady who openly admits that her family looks for reasons to sue. This lady's daughter was in an accident (one of her friends caused it). So, the daughter sued her friend for like $60,000. Well, the daughter learned real quick that it is easier to take money from others than to work for it.
I don't know if the same thing applies to the original story, but it makes me want to puke.

its no the cat thats worth $45 000. you can get a cat for $10 at a pet store. The judge obviously felt she had $44 990 worth of emotional damage. I say proper thing. the guy is responsible for his dog.
