"He looked at me funny, give me some money."

And so we have our completely bizarre moonlight ritual of sexual harassment litigation.
What’s the phrase we wanted to toss into the time capsule? “Non-sexual gesture that made her feel uncomfortable.” There ya go. Somewhere in a Wall Street Journal (may or may not go rummaging in the archives to find it) someone was guessing the break-even point for these things to be around a hundred grand. I’m doubting like the dickens this is an accident. Wherever a community of people rely on a meal ticket, someone in our system of “law” will pop up to inflate that meal ticket by whatever means…and when the break-even point is a hundred large, a “go away” jackpot of fifty is obviously not unreasonable. -- House of Eratosthenes

That is why we have a variety of calibers in selected weapons and a 2nd Amendment. We will be exercising this right before too long.
