That's old news. I didn't even know it was missing until I went looking for it about 20 years ago. I think one of my kids took it.

Iamon lyme: So is Contract law. That on buying something there are certain rights you have.

.... Your not one for surrendering your rights are you? You just let businesses walk all over you if they mislead you!!

"It's ok... you win, I was dumb for not understanding section 15 part Ciii, I'll just roll over and take it. I like being ripped off!!

So in Conservative land.... If you buy faulty goods. For example a chain saw from a shop. It then when you use it malfunctions and causes you to lose an eye.

You'll just say "buyer beware"..

Is that because of the morphine from the ER department??

You are missing the point. I don't let businesses walk all over or mislead me. That's the whole point of "let the buyer beware". I haven't had to exercise my right to sue because I don't let myself get ripped off.

I have better things to do than to keep myself busy getting justice for being ripped off after making stupid decisions. Another way of saying 'let the buyer beware' is let the buyer be aware.

Iamon lyme: Not to mention that the lazy liberals in the US look for ways to sue so they can make money the easy way. It's really extortion via the courts. 2 million for spilling one's coffee. Seriously. The woman that won that award needed to be jailed for even bringing that suit.

Iamon lyme: Lemon Lime, if you buy a new watch and it doesn't work because the battery was dead. And then you open the back to see what size the battery is, and because the back isn't properly fitted, the screwdriver you're holding slips and you stab yourself in your face. The screwdriver, now stuck in your face, because of the faulty watch, hurts and is bleeding like a sieve. The blood falls on the floor making it slippery. You get up to call 911 and slip on your blood from the wound caused by the screwdriver that you used to open the back of the watch that was new but didn't work because of the dead battery and you fall backwards. You fall hard on the back of your head and lay there in your own blood. Now you have a concision, a screwdriver stuck in your face, blood squirting out of the wound, and all because of a faulty fitting watch back. When you finally get to the phone, you are full of blood. The blood caused the key pads on the phone to stick and not work properly. You dial 911 but get directory assistance. Try as you might, you can't dial 911 because the blood is now all over the phone. You scream and a neighbor comes in to help but slips on the blood and hits his head. He's unconscious. But when he falls his phone falls out. Now the blood on your hands are dry and you're able to dial. But his phone is dead. YOu crawl to the street screaming for help. Rushed to the hospital, you nearly die.

Who should you sue? Will your neighbor sue you? Will you sue your neighbor? Will you have Cheerios for breakfast? If a dog barks like a seal, is it still a dog? Does any of this make sense?

"It's a simple question."


Fair enough. I'll try to keep my answer simple.

No, you say "buyer beware" before you buy the chain saw. Not after.

Then, when you go to use the chain saw, anyone seeing you should run away very fast.

Iamon lyme: Please stop making a simple question hard

I also mentioned Contract law which starts at the moment you walk into a business. It's a simple rule that everyone should know!! You do know it I'm presuming, so lets cut to the chase....

Eg.... If you walk into a shop you are then automatically under contract to pay for any goods you damage or break in there.

But, what do you pay? The price on the tag??

"I don't know" was the answer to your simple question.

Figure it out. If I knew, that would mean I had paid for damaging merchandise. I don't go running through stores like a bull in a china shop, so it doesn't happen.

By the way, I was wrong about how many questions you were asking. You weren't just juggling apples and oranges, you were juggling apples oranges and bananas.

One was a 71 year old man at an internet cafe. Two thugs enter. One with a bat and the other with a gun. The BatGuy smashes a computer and threatens everyone while the GunGuy points his gun at the heads of customers.

71YearOldConsealedWeaponCarrier waits for GunGuy to turn his back. 71YearOldConsealedWeaponCarrier pulls his gun and shoots GunGuy who starts running for the door. 71YearOldConsealedWeaponCarrier continues shooting hitting both GunGuy and BatGuy. They run out the door, bleeding from their wounds and trip over each others as they try to get away from the 71YearOldConsealedWeaponCarrier's bullets. As the door just about closes, 71YearOldConsealedWeaponCarrier takes one more shot of the BadGuys who are sprawled out on the sidewalk. Police caught the crooks shortly after that (following the blood trail) and the 71YearOldConsealedWeaponCarrier got a free latte.

Yeah guns!
