The law doesn't consider your sympathy in either case, and that's the point.

The law doesn't consider your sympathy in either case, and that's the point.
- Nadya 9y agoAnd the court of public opinion often doesn't consider the law and that's their point. Even if completely justified under the law it can be bad PR. For example, McDonalds could have refused to give St. Jude winnings for one of their Monopoly games because pieces were given to St. Jude in such a way that broke the rules. Or asked for the money back once it was found to be part of a fraud scheme. Is McDonald's going to back out of paying the winnings and eat the bad PR of "Refuses to give money to hospital known for saving dying children." just because they have the legal right to do so? Hell no. [0] http://www.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0109/10/lt.12.html http://www.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0109/10/lt.12.html
