See - this is what happens to the sexually repressed.

On a serious note, I applaud you for trying to help these people. This judge is a really nasty little man.

More power to him, I say. BTW, how many threads is necessary for this singular topic?

If there were any real "JUSTICE" the judge would for starters be made to face formal psychiatric assessment.

Likely will never happen of course as he's almost certainly a FREEMASON Rolling Eyes

Judge Now Wants "Just" $54M From Cleaner Rolling Eyes
By LUBNA TAKRURI, Associated Press Writer
2 hours, 47 minutes ago

WASHINGTON - A judge who was seeking $67 million from a dry cleaners that lost his pants has "loosened the belt" on his lawsuit. Now, he's asking for only $54 million, according to a May 30 court filing in D.C. Superior Court.


This shameless greedhead is a disgrace & ought to be promptly disbarred.

When "justice" becomes a 4-letter word.

There's gotta be some back ground story that we aren't aware of.

I'll bet the Korean owner was rude to the customer not knowing he was a judge. You know, like the Ajussi don't give a shiat over a pair of pants with "fock you, I'll just pay you $20 so go away" attitude.

I hope the judge wins the case and teach the Ajussi some lesson that he can't be acting like he did in Korea.

My thoughts and feelings exactly.

(Don' t you also think it seems so unlikely that they would lose the same person's same clothing item twice in two visits to their shop, with the visits being three years apart? This has really made me wonder if they did it intentionally, like some small businesses will do in Korea to get rid of you and keep you from coming back.)

Besides, the case hasn't been dismissed by any judge so far, so there must be some kind of basic merit to it, even if the compensation claim is outlandish.

As far as i'm circumcised, the launderer could have SHIT on his pants & set them on fire right in front the poor & dear "judge" & it would (that is, if we really did have a JUST & not so completely ROTTEN justice system) cost him no more than maybe a fine, replacement of the pants, & maybe some brief psychiatric counselling.

Deluded cretans & vile egotistical deceivers.

This is what the left has done...made a mockery of the court system.

I've been following this story on the radio. Before you start blaming Korean culture for the world's problems maybe you should read the story. He brought in his suits in to be let out and they lost the pants to one of them. The store owners offered $140.00 but the d_ck turned it down so they offered him $4,000.00, again he turned it down.

Let's put it in "righty" terms. The whole lawsuit is based on the simple fact that the store owners had "Satisfaction Guaranteed" and "Same Day Service" signs on the wall. I concede the store owners made a mistake and the man is entitled to compensation but $54mil?! Sh*t like this raises the cost of doing business and pushes companies to relocate offshore. Also, because of the media attention, the plaintiff (a judge) isn't working...that means American tax dollars are paying him to do nothing. Last but not least, this farce of a trial will also cost taxpayer dollars. So as you can see, there is much more to the story.

I get the impression the plaintiff is universally despised, and rightfully so. He's worthless. I don't care what party you vote for or your opinion of Ajussis this affects all of us in a negative way.

The judge, who is BLACK clearly hates Asians. What we see here is the conflict that is in almost every American city where Koreans and other Asians are "lapping" African Americans in economic success. Why do Asians do much better than native Blacks? Better work ethics. The same thing is being seen in the Hispanic community between Puerto Ricans ( who are all American citizens) and Mexicans.
