1. Lead Paint: Delicious but deadly!

2. Only if your passion is chewing on walls or window sills. If it’s not, just paint over it. California itself is quickly becoming a hazard to mental health.

3. The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals strikes again?

4. I always figured kids who ate paint chips were pre-retarded to begin with, like the judge.

5. It’s certainly something that they might do (particularly Stephen Reinhardt), but the court in question is a trial court, not an appellate court, and it’s not a federal court (which the circuit courts of appeal are).

6. So this is California’s problem.
   Who knew, that chewing paint was a state pastime?
   So what is the judges excuse?

7. Oh, so in Liberal dominated California you can sue someone who lied to push a product ?
   ObamaCare anyone ?

8. Five bucks says that the 1.1 Billion will end up in the coffers of cities/counties in or on the verge of bankruptcy. It won’t go to meet debt obligations of course but will probably go to hire more unionized workers and create more democrat voters. (cemeteries only fill so quickly doncha know)

9. Being sued for manufacturing paint 35 years ago, when it was a legal product and the danger of eating it was not a consideration could only be driven by the California EPA. It’s just another money grab. Look for every paint manufacturer in the State to pack up and leave.

10. Just got a new snowblower at long last. Keep hearing the warnings about shoveling snow in cold weather and the strain it imposes on the cardiac system.
    But it introduces another hazard according to the state of California. Included in the owners manual is this addendum:

    First they came after the lead paint, Next they will come after all the snowblowers, lawnmowers, cars, trucks, planes, train. . . .

11. Do NOT underestimate risk of ingesting lead.
    Toronto still has lead drinking water supply pipes in some areas.
    This explains City Hall behavior.

12. Peterj, eating lead paint is a serious concern for the moonbat states vegan parents who aren’t aware that their kids need iron. When the body is iron deficient, pica occurs which is eating just about anything in an attempt to find iron. Saw a 2 year old kid some years back whose parents were vegetarians and they brought the kid in to find out why he’d eaten all of the paint off the walls as far as he could reach. When I checked his iron level, it was non-existent and he was severely anemic. At least the brain damage is occurring in the correct segment of the population.
    In normally fed kids that get enough meat in their diet, lead paint is harmless and, just like with asbestos, one releases way more into the environment when one “removes” it. Likely the paint removal specialists will all be relatives and friends of the dumbocrats who get to charge insane amounts to scrape a bit of paint off a wall every day.
