_RETS_ 07/17/18 12:23:59 PM #51:	gunplagirl posted... It's only "in the best interest" if you're licking MGM's boots. It's in their interest. Should they lose, they'll only harm the people suing them. This is only pragmatic for mgm. I have no reason to side with MGM over anyone. If they can show, before a drawn out trial, that there is legal precedent protecting them against liability, then why waste the time and money going through the litigation? I don't think they are doing it BECAUSE it is in the best interest of the victims long term, but I do think it will end up having been in their best interest anyway. Now, just out of humanity and solidarity, they should be (and should have already) set up charities and initiatives for the victims. Please let me know if they haven't if you've got more info on that. Just from what I know of the event, what could they have done to prevent the massacre? What specific standard was in place that they didn't uphold that resulted in the shooting happening? <cite>_RETS_ posted [p:905235137] in MGM Resort...

Literally no surprise that a rich white asshole would snipe a bunch of people for fun, and other rich white assholes would try to capitalize off of it.</quote> Who is trying to capitalize off it and how?</quote> MGM. Durr?</quote> Capitalizing on not getting sued over something that clearly wasn't their fault? Or rather, capitalizing on not having to deal with hundreds of lawsuits that would all be thrown out but still cost them millions of dollars?</quote> Look at this guy defending literal Las Vegas mob kingpins. They have spare cash out the ass to pay off the victims, and some amount of culpability since it was their property. The act wasn't theirs, but you know, too bad. They own the property. You have a minor at your house party you are the one going to jail.</quote> They have already contributed millions to the victims. But please answer, what specific standard was in place that they failed to meet that allowed the shooting to happen or increased the likelihood of the shooting?</quote> Idk. If it were your house though I guarantee there'd be some shit written into law where you are partially accountable. I'm sure Las Vegas has the same. Shill harder though. Looks great.</quote> ...

RE_expert44 07/17/18 3:28:49 PM #72:	What could they have done to prevent the shooting? Metal detectors, armed security and x ray machines at every door? Put armed security on every floor doing patrols? Then may as well put several cameras in every single room and a lock down feature if someone is acting fishy. --- Topic Killer Extraordinaire!

What exactly is there to be shilled for? And if someone AirBnBs my house and snipes a neighbor, I am in no way responsible for that, nor would the law suggest I was. So if they can follow current procedures to be in line with code, what exactly are those procedures you suggest they didn't follow?

Kushinadahime 07/18/18 2:08:08 PM #75:	A lot of times companies will settle even if they know they are not at fault just because it is cheaper than fighting it. Unfortunately this creates a perverse incentive for plaintiffs to sue anybody that may or may not be tangently involved because it is almost guaranteed they will get a settlement even if their case has little to no merit as it is too costly for the defendent to fight it. Add a sob story and the court of public opinion will make the defendent pay something even if they are not at fault legally. --- Why are you reading this? <cite>Kushinadahime posted [p:905302775] in MGM Resort...
