***REALLY?????????***
Cashgrinder, thanks for sharing with us what this person (can we just call him Lawyer?), the friend of a friend of your fathers (something like that) shared with you. But I have a few questions if you can please ask him for me:
1) Is he saying then that BK is just a "dying hole" for companies? A place where they just go say bye bye to the world? A place where the Judge is nothing but a puppet with no real powers to enact justice?
2) Is he implying that, if there were a trial, the Jury is nothing but a bunch of idiots that could not hand down a verdict of say 3X damages? Is he saying that the jury would just tell the Judge "hey, why don't you just throw them a measley buck... let them buy themselves a happy meal..."?
I'm sorry, but was this a monologue or did you challenge him on some of these things??? I have to tell you that these are the kind of statements that reinforce my belief that it really wasn't all that hard for the Reverend Jones to get his followers to drink the "Kool Aide".
Ciao.
