Tribe To Sue Beer Companies For Alcohol Problems
http://www.keloland.com/NewsDetail6162.cfm?id=127503
Tribe To Sue Beer Companies For Alcohol Problems Published: February 9, 2012, 11:56 AM LINCOLN, NE - An American Indian tribe says it will sue some of the world's largest beer makers for knowingly contributing to alcohol-related problems on South Dakota's Pine Ridge Indian Reservation. The Oglala Sioux Tribe of South Dakota announced Thursday it will demand $500 million from five international beer manufacturers for the cost of health care, social services and child rehabilitation caused by chronic alcoholism on the reservation. The lawsuit also targets four off-site beer stores in Whiteclay, Nebraska, a town with a population of about a dozen people on the South Dakota border that sells nearly 5 million cans of beer annually. The Connecticut-sized reservation has struggled with alcoholism and poverty for generations, despite an alcohol ban since 1832. Pine Ridge legalized alcohol in 1970, but restored the ban two months later. This thread isn't intended to be racist so get that shit outta here you ****ers. I just find it ridiculous that someone is willing to sue beer companies because they drink too much beer. |

I think someone has been hitting the peace pipe in excess.

Pine Ridge has major gang problems. They should probably try to come up with realistic solutions to problems instead of stupid lawsuits.

I’m going to sue Eva Mendes for giving a stiffy and not following through to the happy ending.
