#2 If they win a lawsuit they should be paid in Rachel Corrie souvenir rugs.

#3 Seattle! Ninth Circuit! Deep pockets Catepillar! My money is on the Corries until it goes to the Supremes. Don't these people understand. Bulldozers don't kill - Joooos do.

#5 Rachel Corrie supported terrorists. That made her a terrorist and she deserved her fate. If her parents were sending her money to support her while she was over there, then they were also supporting terrorists and that makes THEM terrorists as well.

Therefore if they were, then they should be charged and put in prison for their crimes.

#6 The parents just want money.

#7 "She stood between the bulldozer and the home, armed with a bullhorn and wearing a bright orange jacket, which were not enough to stop the 50 tons of steel."

Everyone knows that if you want to stop anything, you should use red, not orange.... Liberal Arts educations just don't get it done like they used to, I guess...

#8 Pity it was not a French bulldozer with the 10 reverse gears.

#10 Rachel Corrie, 23, spent part of the winter quarter of her senior year...

Yikes! What was she on, the John Blutarsky college plan (seven years of college down the drain!)?

#11 #9 looks like yellow's as effective as orange...

#12 It is true that directors of the I G Farben corporation were prosecuted for production of Zyclon-B, for use in Nazi death chambers. Culpability engaged because it was manufactured for killing innocent civilians. Bulldozers are built to move earth. I don't see an improper purpose in that.

#15 Why are the Corries pressing their suit? Rachel got her suit pressed just fine.

#16 "It was only because of our frustrations to get some kind of accountability and find out what happened,"

Your daughter is accountable: by her own choice she wasn't in a cross-walk.

#17 Watch out for lawsuits against Stanley, Craftsman and Makita for shoddily built homes.

#18 In re #9 - The old Theodore Sturgeon "Killdozer" story was pretty darn good actually. It would make a nice movie, done right, along the lines of Spielbergs "Duel" maybe. It was done very wrong once I recall.
