More Demons - and Support for the Smokin' Chick!

More demons ... this time in the guise of New York City apartment dwellers who happen to be lawyers. Seems the two so-called parents toss their spawn out into the hallway to play. So they're suing the woman next door - a smoker - because her second-hand smoke is, according to them, seeping out under her front door and bothering the brat who has been tossed into the hall.

Now, first - no matter what your opinion about smoking is - smoking in one's own home is not illegal. Anywhere. So if I were the victim of these two demons, I'd be in a lawyer's office myself, counter-suing them for harrassment, and nipping large holes in their collective paychecks for the next fifty years.

I'd also call the Child Welfare people -- not that they'd do anything productive - to complain that these two demons are too busy hatching dastardly evil plans to monitor their own spawn. "Neglect! Abandonment! Child abuse!" I mean, really - what retarded mother throws her kid into a NEW YORK CITY apartment hallway to play? They're stinking LAWYERS, for goddsake. What, between the two of them they can't scratch out enough space in their own digs for their child? What kind of parents are these people? Why are they churning out kids in the first place, if they don't have enough room for them and have to boot them out into the hallway?

And there's the other issue: that two lawyers - who you would think actually know the law - are suing her for something that isn't illegal ... where did these two go to law school? Their rug rat gets far more crap up his lungs from the two of you living in New York City than he's ever going to get from someone smoking in the privacy of their own home.

Yo! Smokin' lady! Kick their legal butts, and kick them good. Enough is enough already.
