In reply to the discussion: Sheriff’s Office Claims Infant at Fault for SWAT Team Blowing His Face Apart with Grenade [View all]truedelphi
(32,324 posts)8. Pacific Gas and Electric sued the citizens of Burlingame Calif.
When a gas line ruptured and totally blew up 19 homes, partially did damage to other homes, and killed people.
Never mind that the state had GIVEN PG & E the $ 50 million bucks it needed to replace the pipeline - they had other things to do rather than spend perfectly good money on replacing a worn out pipeline.
So although I grieve and feel awful when I hear about things like this, I am not shocked.
