Hopefully this will be one of the results where the defendants/plaintiff pay respective to their responsibility:

Train Company $5
Retard Drunkard : the rest

If they'd just put disclaimers on every feet of track then this kind of thing would have never happened.

Riceman: Did your parents have any kids that weren't stupid?

The United States is going to shiate and the looters are taking over.
Atlas Shrugged

Sue Jack Daniles, sue the fark that sold the underage arsehole the booze, sue U.S. Steel for making the track, sue your mother for giving birth to you.

To bad the train didn't sever his head. Then they could have blown the horn "that would wake up the dead".

Stebian

It is my opinion that you are overcharging the train company.

Also the retard drunkard should have to pay punitive damages to the rest of the country for having to deal with his stupid ass.

maybe Union Pacific could sue the boys parents and whoever supplied the liquor for the lose of income while the train was being cleaned.

ok, it's sick but really...... 15 and that drunk and "early in the morning". didn't the parents notice he wasn't home.

sounding the horn can "literally wake the dead". Find me this train please.. I have a best friend that I would like to have back. Can I sue the lawyer if she doesnt come back from the dead???

Funny that...sleep on train tracks and get run over...hmmmm it just makes no sense at all...

FARKEN LOSER.

he deserved to DIE.

time to get drunk again and finish the job..then he won't have to make up stories about how he "fell asleep"..

"These horns are enormously powerful and can literally wake the dead."

Literally!? What a crazy lawyer.

Those horns are the most annoying thing on earth. Try riding up in the absolute front of a commuter train (SEPTA). It's like having a drunk hyeena schreeching in your ear every 15 seconds (they are required to blast the horn when they come near road crossings and such, and for good reason- one time I was on there and almost hit someone because the road gates were not functioning)

Another lawyer that doesn't understand the meaning of "literally."
This kid missed an honorable mention in the Darwin Awards by inches. I guess he's still got one arm to lift drinks with, so he's still got a shot.

Korzeniowski: Obviously he lived on "the other side of them," and they were probably more comfortable than the doublewide he was heading home to. I'm thinking this kid always wore an orange parka and his speach was always muffled.

“These horns are enormously powerful and can literally wake the dead.” ?!?

Actually the Railroad should sue the boy for trespassing and for getting their train dirty. I am truly surprised a ticket was not issued to the parents for him being on the tracks in the first place.

Sigh...he was drunk. We don't know, maybe they DID blow the damn horn. When you are really, really drunk, some big things go unnoticed. How about all the people who lose an arm because they got drunk, fell asleep, and the blood was cut off to it. Non-drunk people move while sleeping, drunk ones don't.

I assume if he got so drunk and then just went to bed and lost his arm, he would sue the mattress company for not waking him up.

Retard.

Shoulda taken off his farkin head...

PS: Fris pos guys are idiots. What's the big deal.
"Boobies"

I hope his farking wheelchair gets caught on the tracks so the train can finish the job.

Glad to see I'm not the only person who reads fark who wasn't a bit puzzled about literally waking the dead...

I just hopes that he doesn't win his case.

I remember a store on the way to camp. I think there was someone who got beer there, went into some creek or water and slipped on some rocks. Well the bottle broke and he cut himself up.

Sued the store.

I would like the plaintiff's lawyer to try a little experiment for me.

1. Go to the local pub and drink until his blood-alcohol is .22
2. Go to the nearest railroad tracks
3. Fall Asleep
4. Now, we will have a train approach him going 40 mph. When the train comes within 100 yards, we will the conductor sound his horn. At this point the lawyer will have approximately 5 seconds to:
a. wake his drunk ass up.
b. figure out where the hell he is at.
c. come to the conclusion that he's in grave danger.
d. drag his drunk ass off the tracks.

Yeah, I just hope the kid's lawyer is as stupid talking to the judge as he is talking to the press.

Appeals courts just LOVE misstatements and hyperbole.

What's that, he lost both legs and one arm?

Did he lose his pecker, too? Yes? GOOD, then he's officially a Darwin Awards candidate. No? Well, he still is anyway because unless he finds chicks who are into the "Lieutenant Dan" look(without the heroic "I lost my legs because they got blown off in a Cong ambush" line), he'll have a hard time getting laid.

Well, the presentation is not so pretty, but I hope I got my point across

"The 15-year-old Grover Beach boy....blood alcohol level shortly after the accident was 0.229 ....severing both of his legs near the knee and his right arm at the shoulder."

hey at least this dumbass still has one good arm left to throw down more drinks...I hope they fvcking toss this one outta court....

LOL as if you can sue THAT easily in the USA. If a case like this ever appeared here, the boy would be liable to pay for the cleaning of his blood off the trains wheels. Case closed.

Did he win 3M TA3?

I think this kid may have a really good case against the railroad. My best friends cousins brother-in-law once knew a guy who had a neighbor that had a few too many drinks and "fell asleep" with his head in a gas fireplace. The night grew cold and the thermostat kicked on the fireplace. Poor guy lot all of his hair and had some nasty burns to his scalp. You guessed it, he sued the maker of his dandruff shampoo because it stopped working. Guy made out like a bandit.

Now wait... drinking alcohol is ILLEGAL in the US until you are 21. How did this kid's BAC get up to 0.229 without him breaking the law?

This reminds me of the time that I was walking along the railroad tracks and got hit by a train.. The horn was then sounded, and I was literally woken from the dead. It's a good thing, too, or I would not be alive today to tell the tale.

Dahaka: good point.....It'll probably get tossed out by the judge cause he shouldn't have even been drunk...
15 and drunk...good thing it happened to him now and not later (after he got his driver's license) behind the wheel...killing a family of 4.

Overpaid Slacker "This kid missed an honorable mention in the Darwin Awards by inches."


Did you mean that literally?

Lionl Hutz, how could you?
sobbieso

This is just pathetic. I say put him back on the tracks and hit him again, you know, to put him out of his misery.

You know, it occured to me... The kid lost his right arm at the shoulder and his two legs at the knee...

how in the name of all that is holy is that possible? How do you lay down so that 1 shoulder and your knees are all on the same line?

stuipd gimp.

Asmor, two rails=set of tracks. at 15 he's tall enough for knees over one, arm over the other. although arm at the shoulder it just missed his head. damn shame that.

Obviously the idiot lawyer has never been on, much less operated, a train. It is impossible to stop a train traveling at 40mph in 640 feet. The train has too much momentum to stop. But then that never stopped lawyers from saying dumb things - look at the whole O.J. Simpson mess.

If he had blown the horn at 640 feet, the kid would have had 10.9 seconds to get up and get himself off the track - assuming he woke up. Railroad tracks are private property; the kid was trespassing, and he paid for it. He should consider himself lucky he's not dead.

Stupid kid shoulda' been out farkin' a tree!

In defense of the kid, I ask: who among us hasn't gotten drunk, fallen asleep on railroad tracks, gotten his limbs ripped off, sued the railroad company, and made midget porno movies with the proceeds?

TV's_Frank: yep.

doesn't even begin to describe this person.

That reminds me i once saw a train de-rail. Some damn cool shiat. It was much worse than the pic _ shows. One compartment must have been carrying something explosive because it blew up so big, it sent a shockwave lake it was next to. Very cool shiat. Not for whomever was on the train though.

Geez, with crazy train conductors like this, it's not even safe to get drunk and fall asleep on the train tracks anymore. What's this world coming too?

The railroad should sue him for being a total F*U*C*K*I*N*G idiot.

Here's a thought I don't think has been brought up. The railroad ought to sue the kid and his parents. The reason, railroad tracks are private property, right of ways. So, technically, that dumbass was trespassing. Let's all sing "If I only had a brain"

PS: Another case of natural selection. Too bad the UP doesn't have wider trucks.

For those of you unfamiliar with train nomenclature, that's the wheels.

Hoosier HOOAH!

Tell the Union Pacific Railroad just what you think about it:
