Tsunami victims sue US
 

Okay, I've seen it all now. Seems the US - and others - are being sued because we failed to warn them about the coming Tsunami. They are sueing because the US "failed to issue the requisite warnings". At what point in time did it become our legal obligation to warn other countries about Tsunamis and the like?

"Respondent NOAA did not notify all involved countries which lay in the tsunami's path. From public information it appears that ... NOAA failed to issue an alert that would notify countries where the tsunami hit that the deadly wave was coming," the lawsuit said."

What is this world coming to?

what a bunch of unthankful bastards.

USA helped a lot to the tsunami victims

fuck them

This is how they repay us after millions of OUR dollars have spent helping them and will eventually turn into billions. Makes me SICK.

You have to love the hippocracy in these stories. First they hate the US because we have our foot in everyone's ass. Then they bitch and complain we are not the global police or watch dogs, then they complain when we could have done something, and don't.

We were misers when we did not open up the treasury compared to some countries in Europe, then fill the cauffers, have all kinds of people giving money and aid, and then they sue??

Get the fuck outta here! :321GFY :321GFY :321GFY

I wish this country would go back to pre-WWII days and just stick to ourselves, and let the rest of the world handle their own garbage. Pull back all aid, troops, and resources. You don't want our help? Fine. Enjoy. Give them some humble pie to chew on for a spell. Then when we actually do help, we might get a fucking, "thank you".

:mad:

_____________

im a nobody and enjoy it
i remember a few weeks back you posting in a thread about your cousins in iraq and joe replying how anyone who fights for the us war machine deserves to die. then you quote it and say you agree.
funny stuff

This is indeed slightly retarded.

Simple solution, never donate again anymore...

yes, I have military family.

which in a way gives me more right to speak out than someone who doesnt :)

you sit at home while people like me donate family members.

as a matter of fact, i have a cnother cousin in town who is military and he called me wanting to party this week.

he is being shipped off somewhere too

Dude this fucken is bullshit

Jon

lol.. this is great
could have been an american lawsuit lol

Answer your fucking icq

i have family there aswell. you "donate" family members? interesting....

Donating humans, nice

Great news !

:banana

Guys... read the article.
"U.S. and Austrian lawyers have filed a lawsuit"

Sueing is the American way, it figures.

lol wtf is that shit.

And then they will bitch about that.

They all learned it from the best at sueing

thats so much fucking bullshit

Couldnt agree more.

Maybe we should warn them about the 500 nuclear warheads heading towards their piece of shit countries. Fuck em All Ungreatful Bastards, GFY :321GFY

Well if they are suing, then I want my donation back.. could buy myself something nice with what I donated :mad:

Fucking ungreatful bastards, not all of 'em but those planning to sue! :mad:

excuse me?? they were warned. the radio stations over there refused to play it because they thought it was a joke.. and the government didnt want to prewarn people thinking it would ruin tourism.

everyone knew this a long time ago. .so wtf is with this??

Did any of you actually read the article?
It's not like the families to approx 300.000 dead people are trying to sue someone.

Don't blame everyone.

American lawyers are scum, we know that already.... Why do stories like this surprise anyone anymore?

Guys

Read the news article. this is nothing but US and australian lawyers exploiting the
affected countries. I doubt anyone in those countries even know this.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Looks like this is what these fucker does. Fucking A hole he is.


Help people my ass. I wonder whether this fucker even visited the affected area. Fucking retart. he is.

Hope he burns in fucking :321GFY helll

fucked up . To think that our old presidents went there to try and raise funds for them.

I'm with you. I can't believe they want to sue us for not telling them it was coming. Let nature take its course. Man interferes with nature way to much. Their is a reason why nature does what it does. Don't blame us for what a higher power does. And then don't take all our money that we send to try and help.

Its all fucked up.

Indeed, it's just greedy American and Austrian law firms showing these people how to earn a buck the dirty American way!

It's so funny to see all the narrow-minded American comments here :1orglaugh

Seems to me that it's mostly people from Europe who are pushing this:
"The U.S. and Austrian lawyers filed the lawsuit on behalf of around 60 named plaintiffs from Austria, Germany, France, Netherlands and elsewhere. Podovsovnik said they were also acting on behalf of at least 40 more not named."

ANd they were notified:
"Published reports emerged that upon receipt of the NOAA alert and other data, the seismological and oceanographic experts of Thailand spent more than one hour talking about what the risk may or may not have been, instead of immediately issuing a warning to their population," it said.

It's not about the money; It's more like they are trying to place blame on the US saying we didn't warn anyone about a possible even three thousand miles away. I'm also willing to bet that this lawsuit is trying to set it up for a second lawsuit - where money would be involved.

Can't believe they actually have the gall to sue after the amount of support they received...fucking ungrateful bastards

:1orglaugh so glad i didnt donate a dime, see those pics of those mother fuckers with bin laden tshirts? im tired of hearing about the usa donating and still being bashed.

may as well not donate, let everyone die and be hated the same.

Being good sucks...

start caring when you make a post that doesnt make you look like captain ass hat. who the fuck cares who he is. its not about who someone is.

the US didn't do anything cuz it wasn't a "threat" or "profitable" to them, or erlse, they'd be all over it like the middle-east :winkwink:

This is a joke, I mean people in US sue for the most stupid reasons looking to get rich but this has to be the most stupid lawsuit from the Land of Lawsuits...

Before people post stupid comments, they really should read the article first.

That's what happens when the US is playing God in places like Iraq and Afghanistan. The US has put itself in this position, and a lawsuit such as this actually makes alot of sense.
