[FONT=&quot]MGM Resorts International claimed in a new lawsuit that it has no liability in any of the injuries or deaths in the October mass shooting in Las Vegas.

[FONT=&quot]The company, which owns Mandalay Bay and the Route 91 Harvest festival venue, argued that its security vendor took all necessary precautions, approved by the Department of Homeland Security, for “protecting against and responding to acts of mass injury and destruction,” according to the suit acquired by the Las Vegas ***************.

[FONT=&quot]“I’ve never seen a more outrageous thing, where they sue the victims in an effort to find a judge they like,” attorney Robert Eglet, who represented some of the victims, told the ***************, accusing MGM of “judge-shopping” in federal court, rather than state court where he believes any lawsuits should be filed. “It’s just really sad that they would stoop to this level.”

Im on the fence with this one, but leaning more towards the side of MGM and their not being held responsible for this tragedy. What other precautions or things could they have done to prevent this? This guy was seriously mentally ill, he would have found a way to massacre as many people as possible any way he could. Its like trying to hold Uhaul responsible for a guy who rents a truck and mows down crowds of people.....

Its sad, but, Im leaning with MGM on this, and people are just looking to sue them cause they have deep pockets.
