You have to remember people in this country will sue over ANYTHING no matter how small the actual damage. Anyone at fault for so much as a paper cut could easily get raped in court for some "pain and suffering" bullshit. It would be nice to assume that the other person involved in the incident will be forgiving, but while there are lawyers and greedy people on the earth, you have to be extremely careful for your own self-preservation, which after all is the most basic instinct of any living thing.

"Prohibition will work great injury to the cause of temperance. It is a species of intemperance within itself, for it goes beyond the bounds of reason in that it attempts to control a man's appetite by legislation, and makes a crime out of things that are not crimes. A Prohibition law strikes a blow at the very principles upon which our government was founded." --Abraham Lincoln
