    This simply wraps up all that is wrong with our world. A tragic accident – get in line to sue. And please – \”mental anquish, I can\’t work or live.\” Boo Hoo. I have seen children traumatized worse than this and they pull themselves up and go on. Whine to someone who gives a …..

    If this guy is so traumatized why didn\’t he move out of the city? Or, at the very least, move out of that building… One would think mental anguish would cause him to have horrible flashbacks every time he enters that apartment building.

    Now, if he didn\’t have renter\’s or homeowner\’s insurance that is too bad for him. He shouldn\’t sue someone else because of his own stupidity (if that is the case).

    Good point MD… he is acting like more of a baby than most babies. And kids have gotten through worse and come out stronger (ie: crimes and NOT tragic accidents). What a crock!

    I couldn\’t agree more! This man and I use that term as loosely as possible should be ashamed of himself! It is not bad enough that Lidle and Stanger families had to deal with the tragedy they were subjected to the day of the crash but now they have to continuously relive it with these MORONS claiming post traumatic stress? Get a life! Move out of the building and carry out the rest of your days being thankful that you survived. And leave the poor families alone to grieve and move on with their lives.

    This guy is a big wuss! If he is so traumatized, why doesn\’t he move to a tree house in Montana where these things never happen? :-) I am doubly sure there are a lot more people out there with stronger constitutions than this guy…like all the rest of us.

    Mr. Sparta, you sicken me. My Dad received 5 purple hearts while serving in the military in Europe during WW II and in Korea. He suffered Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome to the day he died and was buried at Arlington National Cemetery with full honors. Despite his injuries he raised a family and was smart enough to insure his property, his life, and his family.

    Our troops in the Middle East and elsewhere suffer Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome- they deserve our thanks and our support. If you can afford to live in that building then you certainly could afford to insure your belongings.

    As for suits against the airplane manufacturer, this is more typical liberal crap. There is no evidence that the airplane was at fault but it is SOP to sue the manufacturer when a plane goes down.

    I was a big Cory Lidle fan and I am very sorry for his wife and other survivng family members. Perhaps if I lost a loved one in a plane crash I might feel inclined to sue, but I doubt it.

    Have we all forgotten that sometimes **** happens?

    God bless your father and his generation El Squid. Too few folks like them in the world today. Replaced by a population of people largely with Mr. Sparta\’s mindset.

    Ditto from what El Squid and the rest of you have wrote. Mr. Sparta needs to grow a pair and behave like a man. The wussification of america just continues on.

    Good Comments. It\’s too bad they can\’t be published on the national news. The unfortunate thing is we\’re preaching to the proverbial choir. The plaintiff bar and the general public needs to hear something other than the garbage the plaintiff bar feeds them in the media. The bozo who took this case should be ashamed.

    First, let me say that the whole \”mental anguish\” thing sounds a bit far-fetched as if it were dreamed up by this guy\’s \”no fee unless we win\” plaintiff\’s attorney.

    Having said that, I do believe that there might have been a case here if the plane had damaged his apartment. Look at it another way: If this guy was in his home in the midwest somewhere and a driver accidentally plowed through his livingroom window, you wouldn\’t think twice that he sued for compensation from the driver\’s insurance company.
