I'm really so sorry for this family, really. But, will sueing Disney make their grief better? Will it bring their beloved son back? Will it make Disney 'correct' the malfunction that caused the boy's death? Of course not...especially not the 'malfunction'...Disney is not at fault here. If this poor child has gotten overexcited walking down the street, or running around in someone's backyard, and then consequently died, would the family be suing?? I doubt it. But, because Disney does have 'deep pockets' they do. Yes, perhaps they are starting a scholarship fund with any monies received...I don't know, nor do I particularly care. Disney was not at fault, M:S was not at fault, no one was at fault!! It was a tragic accident, nothing more. Sure, the poor child's heart couldn't take the attraction but that's not anyone's fault. I guess you could say it was the parents' fault since they allowed their ds to ride it despite all the warnings. I know, I know...they didn't realize there was an issue with their ds. I just wish people weren't so quick to place blame and want to be compensated monetarily for these tragic accidents.
Now, quite possibly there is a legal ramification to the suit...any legal beagles out there that might have any insight?
