if ur a parent... and u let Miley Cyrus(or any disney starlet) be your little girl's(dear jeebus little boys better not be imitating this shiet) role model... you're fcking up somewhere...
I am not surprised. In civil court, you don't need a 100% vote to win so who knows ... a good diverse jury + a good venue = good chance to win. Whether there is an Asian in the pic or not doesn't mean much, it's the intention to mock the Asian that matters. Why Miley is being targeted? Cuz she has the $$$ and also a public person (that's come with some sort of social responsibility).
Doesn't a person have to have Billions of dollars if your gona sue them for that much, or is she supposed to work it off
lol someone's going a bit OTT aren't they?.. seriously that woman should just chill. why didn't she sue the whole of the [can't remember which country] basketball team when they did those stupid eyes during the olympics.. surely that's more "serious" and for god's sake, she's only a kid anyway.
mocking someone, or a group of someone's is not an infringement upon someone's rights though... the case is gonna be tossed out b4 it even gets to a jury... it probably won't even get to the courts...
i know what you mean but sure enough the lawyer is not that STUPID. she gotta have something under her belt to even file the suit. freedom to express oneself is a right; however, when your expression has "malicious" (guessing here) intention to discriminate or promote discrimination of any kind against a particular minority group; then it's a different story. whether this is the miley girl's initial intention or not .. the pic can be interpret in various ways depend on who you talk to .. the important things is that the lawyer gets her facts straight. california is very diverse and racially sensitive so if the story is together, she just might get the judgment. of course, there's gonna be an appeal process and on and on and on .. draggin on and on and on before you'll see any more if any .. that's enough to suffocate the star from doing her work.
lol its just a picture, stupid ass shit. just suing her cause she rich. why don't blackfaces get sued then.
so she apologised.. forget it then... but sue that noob in the red shirt cus he was going to far -dead and maybe the asian dude should get flogged for rolling like that -dead-dead
You think too highly of people like this. People like her bringing up a lawsuit like this, make Asians look like idiots.
IIRC, I think it was Spain. -roflyawn Intending to commit adultery, or promoting adultery, is qualitatively different than committing adultery. Same too, with civil rights violations. Intent to violate civil rights (but not having yet done so) or promoting the violation of civil rights (but not having yet done so); means that you haven't yet violated civil rights. Verdict? NOT GUILTY. For anyone having difficulty with this, and insists that she had violated the civil rights of Asians; please tell me exactly which civil right was violated? There was no violence involved, there was no organizational unit that advanced an agenda that would curtail the rights of specific classes of individuals, so what exactly was violated? She may have insulted a lot of people (if that was indeed her intent or not is moot), but violated their civil rights? No. The following is from the preamble on the home page of the California Dept of Justice Civil Rights Division: If no law was violated, then there is no case.
well ... who knows ... white people bring in a lot of shitty lawsuits too .. we have to wait and see .. all i am saying is that passing the bar exam in california is not easy (in fact, the CA BAR exam is the hardest in the country) so to make such a move (regardless of whether it make Asians look stupid or not), the lawyer has to have some ground. What exactly or how she has come to believe it violated civil right is something I wanna know too .. we don't know the whole story. I am sure the attorney would not risk her reputation and career for a stupid suit that she's bound to lose .. especially ASIAN lawyer.
The chances of her being able to win such a large monetary award is effectively nil. So why do it then? Large numbers get a lot of press attention, which is, IMHO, her primary motivation here. I hope the judge finds this as frivolous and charges her for the time of the court. :rl: Protection of Asians against real civil rights violations should not be belittled by attention seeking lawyers who co-op legitimate causes for their own petty agenda. For those that really want to sink their teeth into the Asian civil rights struggle, start with Vincent Chin.
