I saw this. I understand the man got hurt. I understand the man now walks with a walker. However, he stepped on a god damn pallet. Every large retail store in the country uses pallets. Isn't it his fault for stepping on the display?

Years ago my grandmother slipped and fell on some liquid in a store aisle, and she broke her hip. It was pretty bad; She was in the hospital for months. My grandmother sued the store, and while she didn't get millions she had a fair payday. But at what point is it the store's fault if you hurt yourself? Isn't it my grandmother's fault that she slipped and fell because she failed to see the water and failed to avoid it? I mean.... If your car slides on ice on the road and you crash you can't sue the city because they failed to remove the ice...

What I am saying is... An accident is an accident. You shouldn't be able to sue someone because you failed to see the dangers of stepping on a pallet.
