Lets face facts. We live in a lawsuit happy society where nobody seems to want to be responsible for their own actions. It seems to me that if some idiot gets so drunk that he falls in the fire and gets himself burned, he should have no right to sue this rendezvous, any of the staff, the manufacturer of the flint and steel that made the fire, or anyone! His own actions and free will caused the problem and he has no right to cause others a lot of grief by filing a lawsuit. But that is just my opinion. Unfortunately, there are a few unethical folks that might visit a big rendezvous and there are a whole lot of unethical lawyers, thus we have insurance. So here is what we have: The Eastern Primitive Rendezvous is a part of, and is insured through, the National Rendezvous and Living History Foundation. The foundation owns a liability insurance policy that covers participants and the public if someone should get hurt during an event. Secondly, the foundation owns an indemnity policy that protects officers and staff in the event of a lawsuit against them if they do something stupid enough to be sued. Thirdly, the foundation owns a liability policy that protects private land owners where an event is held. So, the bottom line is we have insurance which protects everyone from themselves! What we really need is for everyone that comes through the gate to be courteous and look out for one another, practice the golden rule and exercise some common sense. Then there will be no lawsuits whatsoever!!! |
