MaxRedline: Suit City

Cincinnati: Butler County residents have had just about enough of winter, and officials there have drawn up an "indictment" claiming that Punxsutawney Phil, the groundhog did purposely, and with prior calculation and design, cause the people to believe that Spring would come early.

Butler County Prosecutor Mike Gmoser even called for the death penalty to be brought upon Phil as his punishment, if convicted.

On a more disturbing note, disability lawsuits are starting to crop up online, as professional "advocates" accuse companies of violating ADA requirements by not making their websites "accessible".

Their theory that the 1990 Americans with Disabilities Act applies to the modern Internet has been dismissed by several courts. Still, the National Federation of the Blind and the National Association of the Deaf have won legal victories against companies such as Target Corp.TGT +0.56% and Netflix Inc. NFLX -0.38% Both companies settled the cases after federal judges rejected arguments that their websites were beyond the scope of the ADA.

And of course, Barky's DOJ is about to get involved, so expect them to rule that all websites and streaming content must have captions for the deaf, audio for the blind, and be dumbed down "to aid" Democrats and other intellectually impaired individuals. NetFlix, for example, has agreed to make 100% of its streamed video content closed-captioned for the hearing impaired - and will do so by 2014. That's a whole lotta captioning.
