Back in October, a homicidal maniac decided to rain down fire on a concert. Fifty-eight died and over five hundred injured.
Being the litigious society we are, victims sued MGM, which owns the Mandalay Bay hotel, for failing to take appropriate action to stop this homicidal maniac. MGM, not wanting to pay out what would probably end up being tens of millions of dollars decides to sue the victims right back. Except, instead of money, MGM is suing to invalidate any liability under a law passed in the wake of 9/11.
It’s all a cluster-fuck. Of course, the press is excoriating MGM. Just another episode of lawfare.
