You can't respond to a bully without getting in trouble while the bully gets away with bullying? How about someone trespassing in my yard can sue me if they step on a nail while trespassing? Or a burglar who gets hurt while committing a crime who then turns around and sues the person they were stealing from? We have such great laws here. They sure do promote personal responsibility.
Haha, I was actually just learning about all that in my class at college. With a good lawyer anything seems possible and I find it ridiculous how many lawsuits go on in this country.
