People should be personaly responsible for their own actions/consequences and stop trying to take it out on corporate america.

Only in the USA would you see such a lawsuit - and with a good chance of winning too.
Agreed. But it also is happening in Canada, England and a few other countries.

I'm waiting for the class action suits against car makers for drunk drivers and them not having installed breathalyzers or some other device to prevent misuse/speeding and against gun makers because they don't hit what they are supposed to hit when you fire them for the first time without any schooling or practice.
