So-Called "Railway Safety Act" Constitutes a Political Handout to Big Labor That Does Nothing to Improve Safety At All

America as we know it was built largely upon and because of our rail industry, and today it remains a pillar of our economy.

A Missouri woman is suing Lambert's Cafe, the "Home of the Throwed Rolls," after allegedly suffering injury from a (you guessed it) thrown roll.
 
Troy Tucker is suing the Ozark, Missouri, Lambert's Cafe for $25,000, claiming she "sustained a lacerated cornea with a vitreous detachment and all head, neck, eyes and vision were severely damaged" after being hit in the face by a roll. Lambert's is well-known for its servers tossing dinner rolls to guests across the dining room, an act that Tucker deems to be dangerous, careless and negligent. Tucker says she has $10,000 in medical bills and legal fees, which she wants Lambert's to cover.
 
News reports indicate that Lambert's signature designation as "Home of the Throwed Rolls" is clearly posted throughout the restaurant.
