[quote user="Andrew Falconer"][quote user="Safety Valve"] <P>I was taught that 440 volts can strike a person 10 feet from a open or unprotected building main box. That is bad enough.</P> <P>At 12000 I would not want to survive the experience. =)</P> <P>[/quote]</P> <P>How does 12000 volt compare to being electrocuted by the Criminal Justice system in some states?</P> <P>Because they were electrocuted the thoughts of the lawyers and jury might be that they should be allowed to get away with anything they want.</P> <P>Andrew</P> <P>[/quote]</P> <P>The CJS does not work perfectly. It will stumble at times and squash those unlucky enough to be underfoot. The best course was not to have gotten up onto those railcars. I dont have much faith in our broken justice system and Corperations will write off the losses once a final number is whittled down and paid to the lawyers involved.</P> <P>Life goes on until another person gets nuked by live wire. The sleepy courts will mobilize the tons of paperwork while the lawyers gleefully scurry about drawn by money like moths to a flame. The nuked person should he or she survive is just a small pawn in our system. The forums fill with outrage and the world turns as usual.</P>
