The $54 million pants

I don't know if you've seen the story about the $54 million pants lawsuit, but it is a very sad story indeed.

Ignoring for a moment that the justice system is not perfect, how could anyone be such an asshole? These poor old immigrants were essentially driven out of business by an asshole. It's not any more complicated than that. It's hard to have faith in human beings when you encounter crap like this.

I saw this on the news last night and was appalled! You know that the rest of the world is just adding this to the list of things that are wrong in America. And he's a judge!!! Grow up and stop crying over a lost pair of pants.

Please tell me that he did not get voted into his position as a judge.

I'm guessing that as an judge in DC he was appointed...if its a federal level appointment he might be there for life or retirement.

Its too bad he didn't decide to sue before he got the bench job...I don't think his actions were very becoming of a judge. In fact this seems to unreasonable that I wonder if he has some sort of ulterior motive.

I just can't believe he turned down $12,000 they offered him for his $800 pants.
