But then couldn't a car dealership for example defend themselves against a bait and switch claim by saying they sold one car at the advertised super low price and that others could always choose not to buy when they realize they would be paying full price?

I see. Thanks!

A theoretical scenario: I go to a sporting event in which they are giving out free bobbleheads to the first 3,000 fans. If I were to leave my bobblehead at my seat when I went to the bathroom and someone snags it, they stole it right? What about if I forget the bobblehead there and go to...

True, but is it still technically considered a "crime" even though the penal code defines "crime" as a misdemeanor or felony?

I don't mean to sound like a jerk or anything but considering your son was in detention, don't you think it was probably him that did any wrongdoing? Why is it that American kids can't take any discipline anymore? Remember back when bad kids got swatted? Now here you are wondering what type of...

Is jaywalking considered a crime? According to the New York Penal Law book, it says a "Crime" means a misdemeanor or a felony. Jaywalking obviously is neither of these things. But I'm wondering if the definitions section of the penal law book is simply for ease of use when reading it as a...

I was at a sporting event the other night which was advertising as being $1 drink and dog night. Supposedly they had sodas, beers, and hot dogs for a dollar each. They had numerous signs saying this promotion was held every Friday and even a huge tarp over one section of the seats advertising...

Only because of all the silly complainers these days. Back in the day kids would get hit regularly at skill by their teachers. There's a reason that past generations have much more discipline and respect than the kids nowadays do. And they don't use vulgarity every other word, either.

Well it wasn't so much as a website as it was an online game. A game that people pay to play. If they could ban whomever they wish, shouldn't there at least be some protection for people who spend their money on it?

Why would you want to complain about this though? Kids should be spanked. It helps them learn. There's a reason the youth today is so rebellious. Nobody spanks them as kids.

Had a law question pertaining to freedom of speech in online video game communities. I was playing this game the other day online and hanging out in one of the chat lobbies when I saw one of the administrators warn someone for using the word "gay." Isn't this bigoted? Can they legally ban people...

You mean I can't just show up with a baseball bat?

Wow that is silly I would have thought internet business would be different. I have a Bachelors in Criminal Justice & Jurisprudence and the general feeling I took away from most laws is that they seem like common sense when you think about it but having to file where the other person lives in an...

I have all of the conversations saved though so it's not a he said, she said. The agreement on here is a valid contract which he is to be held to. Like I said, this isn't about the money, it's about the principle. This guy shouldn't be allowed to go around ripping people off and I feel that if I...

First let me say that the money I'm talking about here is really paltry, $40. The guy has just been such a jerk about things that it almost seems worth it to try to force him to pay me so that he learns his lesson to not scam others in the future. It's not about the money but the principle of...
