Administration Presses Novel Effort for Tort Reform

Cheney leads effort to attack lawyers

Kingsville, Texas (AP) -- Impatient with stalled efforts to close the courts to litigants, the Bush Administration literally fired the first shot in its groundbreaking "No Lawyer Left Standing" initiative. Vice-President Cheney, hunting on a private lawyer ranch near Kingsville, Texas, bagged an impressive buck (Harry Whittington, UT Law '50). Under the new program, hunters may take one white shoe in-house lawyer or three outside lawyers daily. There is no limit for trial lawyers. "We've just got to thin the herd," said the Vice-President. "We've tried tort reform and caps on damages, but people are still suing." Cheney added, "It's easy and fun. In Texas, you can shoot in almost any direction and hit a lawyer."

I do not mind real hunters (those that do it for survival, not sport), however, I must admit I do agree with this kind of sport hunting.

Tx maybe be a bit “red neck” in fact that is not really true, TX is one of the nicest states in the US and is like 30 years ahead of lets say CA. I have not seen to much looting going on in TX, the courts don’t prosecute people protecting their property or life very often, so if you want to be a fuck-up I would move to another state.
