Now Peter Jeffery, a Princeton University music historian, is suing the Smashing Pumpkins. According to him, he is suing because their music is too loud. It gave him tinnitus, and damaged his life and the ability too enjoy his music he said. In America you can be sued by your own children, your parents, your family. People can sue cops.
Cops can sue people and any harm or accident can be turned into a major windfall.
Only here can you have a private swimming pool in your backyard fenced in and locked with a sign, yet still be sued when some fool drunkenly breaks in and drowns. What a crock. Professor Jeffery has asked for 9.2 million dollars. I have no doubt, as a matter of fact a firm belief, that his hearing could have been damaged. Watching his tearful interviews, you might think that he thought he was going to a violin virtuoso.
