Title: 66 Year old Woman Suing all of Homosexuality.
Post by: Zygarde on May 06, 2015, 08:47:31 pm: Yes this is a real thing a woman in Omaha is suing homosexuality, yes it's as stupid as it sounds here's a quote from the article

Quote
Identifying herself as an ambassador for God and Jesus Christ, a Nebraska woman has filed a federal lawsuit against all homosexual people on the planet for breaking “religious and moral laws.”

This is probably the dumbest thing I've seen in long time, but knowing this world there will probably come a day where I see some racist guy sue all minority's or some stupid shit like that.

Post by: Sylvana on May 07, 2015, 03:01:11 am: How does a case like this even work?
Despite the whole being a homosexual not being illegal in America, dont lawsuits actually need specific targets?
Not to mention, lets assume that by some twist of tzeech's nipples she wins, what does she even hope to achieve?

There are some really strange people out there.

I definitely agree with that theory.

"Witness 2,789,567 on the respondent's side is a 49 year old woman from the Pirahã tribe of the Mura people of Brazil who wants to know why she was brought to this strange country..."

Is suing 700 million people at once even possible?

If she didn't let the jurisdictional issues stop her, or the fact that she's using secular courts to sue people for disobeying religious laws, or that she doesn't know the identities of almost all the people she's suing, what makes you think a silly thing like numbers will get in her way?

Also: In a shocking twist nobody could have foreseen, the suit was dismissed (http://www.omaha.com/news/nebraska/federal-judge-dismisses-nebraskan-s-suit-against-all-homosexuals/article_ac48f042-f43e-11e4-8161-63df2bd2525d.html).

Post by: RavynousHunter on May 08, 2015, 08:29:05 am: As much of a logistical nightmare as it would've been, that would've been hilarious. Maybe homosexuality would hire a single, legal proxy to act in their stead? If I were gay, I'd nominate George Takei.

Post by: mellenORL on May 08, 2015, 09:59:11 am: Nomination seconded. Too bad it was inevitably dismissed. Would've been a fabulous example of the human comedy.

Post by: Askold on May 08, 2015, 03:24:21 pm: This entire fiasco was so stupid for so many reasons that I don't know where I should start criticizing it. I'm glad that the courts chose not to waste any more time with it.

Post by: Cloud3514 on May 08, 2015, 04:54:55 pm: The best part if Takei were to represent homosexuality? Dude's a Buddhist. He doesn't even believe the Bible.
