Default Cessna sued for skydiving accident. OT rant...

Kind of like the bartender that gets sued because someone leaves his place
and gets into an accident. I agree, where does it end and personal
responsibility take over.

I don't see any connection between the two. The drink the bartender is
serving has no potential for damage, unless the user decides to drive drunk.
The bartender does not know if he is gong to call a cab, ride with a friend,
or walk after leaving.

The coffee going out the door will burn everyone who spills a little on him.
Every time, anyone. It, in itself is a hazard, not like the drink, who only
becomes a hazard- dependent on what the person does after consuming it
safely.
