Below is an article from today's AJC that got my blood boiling. Does anyone have any sense of personal responsibility anymore? Has the concept that sometimes, bad things just happen without anyone being to blame, ceased to exist? I hope Crocs wins the case and counter sues against this human douchebag CLARK MEYER. I hope you, CLARK MEYER, burn in hell. Well maybe that's a little harsh, but you know what I mean.
$2 million sought in Crocs lawsuit
Company sued after child’s shoe is caught in airport escalator

The maker of Colorado-based Crocs is being sued over a July escalator accident at the Atlanta airport involving a child wearing the popular resin clogs.
Clark Meyer, the father of a boy identified in Federal Court filings as “A.M.,” wants $2 million for the injuries suffered by his son on an escalator at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport.
Meyer alleges his son was “severely and permanently injured” when the Croc shoe on his right foot was caught in an airport escalator July 15. Photos accompanying the filing show injuries to the boy’s first three toes and a mangled pair of gray Crocs.
Meyer further alleges that the company became aware of the danger to children wearing the shoes in 2005, the same year it began marketing the popular clogs to the younger set.
Crocs officials have denied their shoes caused injuries and instead cast blame on the wearers and faulty escalators. Company spokeswoman Tia Mattson did not immediately return a call for comment on the latest suit.

It's too bad he couldn't teach his kid how to use an escalator. Maybe you should take the stairs next time, or perhaps an elevator. Guys like this cause us to pay more at the register. I equate this to the fat ass not taking care of himself, whose healthcare I end up paying for.
Crocs totally deserved this, why are people in this world so rude. His sons toes might have been amputated but they had to find the best doctors and pay them to save his sons toes. Because of these accidents that have happened with crocs, those shoes now have a warning label. Thanks to Clark Meyer and others who have had experiences like this. By the way there are very few stairs at this airport, there are escalators everywhere. It was because of the material of the crocs that his sons shoe got stuck and he almost lost his toes. It was a sticky material that once it got stuck in the stairs it was not going to come out. So how about you people have a heart or at least so consideration and think about it before you are so quick to judge, that is what is wrong with this country and this world, people don't pay attention to detail or anything, they are to quick to judge, YOU ARE ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE. So shut your mouths and think about it a little more and maybe care a little.
