Hardcore troubadour 12,640 Posted March 22, 2017 I have to say, that Frozen Trucker case isn't too positive for Gorsuch. As a matter of fact, it's really focked up and only a special kind of a-hole would have ruled as he did. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hardcore troubadour 12,640 Posted March 22, 2017 He applied the law as written. He didn't have to. He could have used his "judgement"'. Playing 100% bybthe book is weak, in all jobs and all walks of life. Sometimes you just do what's right, as long as it's legal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What I'd dispatch said get out and walk or unhook and drive and an accident took place?  The ruling was right, the company should have had compassion.

Hardcore troubadour 12,640 Posted March 22, 2017 Is agree with his ruling. Ok. What should the Truck Driver have done? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NewbieJr 540 Posted March 22, 2017 He applied the law as written. For a guy who claims he's not just a rubber stamp, I would have expected him to use some common sense. Terrible ruling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alias Detective 1,179 Posted March 22, 2017 Last I checked compassion isn't a prerequisite to being a Supreme Court Justice. The libs agree with the ruling but want compassion. Â Here - Sen. Dianne Feinstein, who expressed the opinion that the hardhearted judge was not the kind of person who belongs on the Supreme Court. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alias Detective 1,179 Posted March 22, 2017 Ok. What should the Truck Driver have done? Wait as instructed. Why was help so long to get there? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hardcore troubadour 12,640 Posted March 22, 2017 Wait as instructed. Why was help so long to get there? He did wait. Two hours. He did everything he was told to do, until he started freezing. Come on man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think he should have lost his job but as a judge he has to be firm on if you don't follow rules you can be terminated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
