It’s cut and dry in the century code that the landowner is not liable. Would be dismissed before he would even need a lawyer.
explain to me how anwar al-awlaki was redefined (by a politician) as a terrorist instead of an american citizen who didn't deserve due process. seems like the us constitution would have more backbone than north dakota's century code?

In ND he is not liable for injuries to trespassers whether the land is posted or not. It states that in the century code.
"afraid of a lawsuit" bc any good lawyer/politician can redefine the term "trespassers".

Really? I agree with QB's, but running backs? That's gotta be the most preposterous statement I've seen so far this year.
in five or six years there have been 2 good/great rb's recruited thru...not good.

JJ, Gordon and London would be my top 3. I think Sherva is on the roster as well.
five or six years in...rb's and qb's are still a problem....unacceptable a this point in bubba's tenure.

well
1. feel free to show a link or some evidence
2. sounds like your beef should be with the city of new york and not the alerus or anything in ND or "all these fake lawsuits" in general
when the first lawsuit in NYC came thru I'm sure the city just said to pay and they will go away...opposite happens.."Hey Darrel did you hear that Dennis tripped and fell (because he has the coordination of a sloth) outside the grocery in the Bronx so he sued the city for 50K and they paid him." So Darrel does the same and they pay and him and he tell John so he does the same and before you know it Al Sharpton's daughter is suing the city for tripping outside a forever 21...and ten years later.....600 MILLION dollars have been paid out.
If this gets anything from the alerus/gf city the next one is right around the corner for 100k.

i am also curious why you think there are "all these stupid fake lawsuits." that just isn't based in reality (in north dakota anyway. i can't speak to out of state).
also if there truly is a frivolous lawsuit, the person suing could have to pay attorney fees to the other side, which is a pretty good deterrent.
i think the city of new york paid out 600 million in ten years just on people slipping on sidewalks?
600 MILLION

I said I was on your side with the Alerus example. But when others tried to give examples such as the Kansas City incident, you lumped it into the same category as the Alerus incident. I’m saying its not as black and white as you make it, in regards to people taking risk by entering private businesses. They do so taking in some risk, such as not paying attention to a spill on the ground. Not the business owners fault. Walking on a sky walk that passed inspection, I would like to thing there’s a darn good chance that it’s not going to collapse. Maybe not the business owners fault but somebody didn’t do their job correctly.
hindsight is 20/20 but if i was in the hotel in 1981 and i saw a skywalk 40 feet up hanging by what looks like the sprinkler system i would've taken the stairs.

I'm against frivolous lawsuits like you. At times, though, lawsuits are needed in order to improve safety. I'm not siding with the guy who slipped at the Alerus necessarily, especially since I don't know the details. But I also won't go as far to say that the company/businesses have zero responsibility in the safety of it's patrons. It's not as black and white as you are trying to make it.
So how many "spill patrol sheriffs" do you think the Alerus should have roaming the hallways during a football to make the facility safe? 5, 10, 20, 50, 100?
For safety i think 100 for every concourse patrolling the concourses in a grid pattern back and forth like your looking for a lost contact lense?

Just a guess but better safety regulations and building codes to increase the safety of others in the future.
so that wouldn't have happened without the lawsuits?

I’m sure the people in the Kansas City Hyatt Regency in 1981 felt plenty safe before they died. Their fault no doubt. Shoulda known better.
and all the lawsuits accomplished what?

Again, the completely black and white thing is how 5 year olds look at the world. Some bull$%!# will always get through the cracks and that sucks, but there are liability laws in place to protect people and they all have history as the reason.
some 5 year olds are smarter than the average adults sometimes tho...u enter a private property and u feel unsafe...leave. pretty simple stuff.

Right. This all or nothing thing you’re doing is weird.
how do you propose to end all these stupid fake lawsuits? if the city pays this anything more will call the lawyer on the demers billboard that say "have you bee injured call me"...
my buddy had to burn down his gma's old farmstead by park river bc he was afraid of a lawsuit from people stealing the old copper in the walls. that is stupid and weird that someone can break into his grandma's house and sue his grandma because they might get hurt stealing from his grandma.

So under my scenario, or any engineering/installation failure, you think the injured party shouldn’t be able to sue?
correct.

well the same goes for say homeowner insurance or insurance a business would have. anyway, i think you're arguing for the way things ought to be whereas i am saying how things are, so nevermind.
let's say you move to new york and open a deli in the bronx called UNDhoops Deli across the street from Tony Saprano's New York Deli. Let's say Tony isn't too happy your moving into his area with all your ideas of opening hundreds of deli's to compete with Tony's deli's. Let's say that every week you notice that these new yorkers are really really uncoordinated and everyday you have someone slipping on a grape, a head of lettuce, an unidentified liquid in the corner and your going broke paying off all these "accidents". Six month later you close your store and move back to north dakota bc the insurance was killing you. Then you find out that Tony across the street was paying homeless people 20 bucks to take a dive in your deli to try to put you out of business. How would you feel? How do you fix this for future entrepreneurs?

i don't think you're following what i am saying. say you're driving your car and get into an accident and get sued. your car insurance carrier is going to hire an attorney and also pay out whatever they settle for or get at trial, so you're not paying the premium (which you have to do to be able to have a car) and the costs of the lawsuit.
i understand that...being on a public road is much different than being in a private business or residence.
