17 dead after duck boat capsizes on Table Rock Lake
This is awful. So sad...


NEAR BRANSON, Mo. -- The Stone County Sheriff confirms eight fatalities involved in a duck boat capsizing on Table Rock Lake Thursday.

Emergency crews responded to the incident shortly after 7 p.m. after a severe line of thunderstorms rolled through the area.

Sheriff Doug Rader reports the boat had 31 people on board. He tells KY3 News four of those have been transported to a hospital. Some of the 31 on board include children. Divers are on the scene searching for more possible victims. The sheriff says he does not know how many on the boat are missing. The sheriff is asking for any family missing someone to go to Branson City Hall. It remains a rescue and recovery mission.

So, the captain decided to take the boat out on his own and not because the boss said to?

When the cargo on the boat is non sentient goods and the only people affected are employees... then I'm all about the law being applied. Not so much when the cargo is 100% human life. *shrugs*

I'll be extremely interested to see if the courts in Missouri allow/buy that defense.

familes probably won't see a dollar. Yet our courts give a guy millions of dollars for spilling hot coffee.

I love the people asking why they don't just shut down Ride the Ducks completely to prevent this from happening again.

That airplane crashed. Shouldn't we shut down airports so this doesn't happen again?

That cruise ship had issues. Shouldn't we shut down cruise lines so this never happens again?

Hey, that car had an accident. No more cars! Prevent it from happening again!

Come on, people.

Really gotta read that case to know why that woman got a settlement (that was reduced a ton on appeal).

She had to get skin grafts, folks. And there were internal memorandum from McDonalds execs acknowledging they were serving that shit way too hot but that it made the restaurants smell better so they did it anyway as a business strategy. And if you want to punish them for knowingly serving a thing that can hurt people in the name of selling more McMuffins, then the award has to be BIG because they're a billion dollar enterprise.

The McDonalds verdict made a lot of sense when you start to break it down. And again - it was reduced on appeal anyway.

Airplanes and cars are legitimate forms of travel, Ducks aren't. I'm not necessarily agreeing to shut them down but I wouldn't want the liability of them. I rode in one at Wisconsin Dells years ago and I wasn't terribly comfortable with how low it sat in the water. I'd never get in one again.

The physical and psychological scaring from hot coffee to the groin would be beyond what I can imagine. I wonder if the hubby sued in a separate case for damages.

I have life insurance on the ex and I suggest "Duck Rides" whenever possible....

Yeah people need to do some research about that case.
McDonalds was serving coffee intentionally over 160 degrees. They knew what they were doing and as you mentioned had an internal memo come to light that they knew they would be liable and were willing to take the risk because they thought it boosted sales. She not only had to get skin grafts on her inner thighs but also on her pussy. The coffee caused nerve damage to her. McDonalds got off light.
What would your dick and the normal usage of it be worth to you?

Wow. ****ing wow. There is a special place in hell for lawyers like the ones behind this "defense".
It is not the lawyers fault that that law is still on the books.

Maybe it will bring some closure for those who lost family members? I mean, you could use that argument on anything. That 23 year old woman who plowed down those kids getting off the school bus a couple of weeks ago is facing charges for it. You could say that her life is already ruined and that sending her to prison isn't going to bring those kids back. But I guarantee you that you won't find anyone making that argument in her defense. Nor should they. I have no problem seeing the captain go to trial. Get all of the facts before a jury and let them decide. He may get acquitted. But at least the families will have the opportunity to hear all of the details that might not have came out otherwise.
