As my post record shows I am not afraid to bring up politics..... But that was definatly done in bad taste and with out thinking 
The point should be that this lady is probally looking for a payout..... She was in and he was in pretty new trucks/suv a side swipe at 45 IMO is not a life threatening thing....
As for the unborn child the first thing that would have happened in over hyper sensitive California is she would have been rushed to the E.R. to check on her baby... The reporter of this article knows that and also knows that if they would have found somthing wronge they would have came out and said it!!!
The fact is if they left her leave tells the story.... In the State of Clalifornia you can not let any one leave the E.R. saying that they will be in perfect health because of the loose (Dare I say it Liberal laws ) and regulations on lawsuits
It's very easy to be cynical without the complete facts, although you do live in a very litigious society it has to be said.
However, any expectant mother involved in a car accident, no matter how trivial, would always be taken to hospital as a precautionary measure.
It's not possible to comment on the severity of the collision without knowing the facts - which are undoubtedly unattainable within the confines of a newspaper article.
All that being said, I don't think it's fair to subjectively trivialise any potential injury when it comes to something so vulnerable.

This thread is starting to get ridiculous. If you guys cannot debate a topic without resorting to name calling and being condescending, I will just lock this thread or delete it.

I had given it up. Rush decided to make comment a full 6 days after the event.
I'm also confused as to why you've decided to stick your oar in when you've contributed nothing to the debate.

Because you don't debate, you just state the same old crap about how you're better/more educated/superior to the other playground posters.

If my views on this thread are not debate orientated then what are yours exactly?
You're usually quite constructive on the forums, perhaps you should stick to that.
