I don't know how anyone could recognize her from that distance but...Cataholic...I think this is an instance where the internet just means a wider audience.

When my sister was 15 she was in an auto accident. She was the passenger in a convertible that was hit broadside. It flipped with her in it (the driver was thrown out) and she landed on her head - then her back. Her head was split open, her back broken in three places and her pelvis was broken.

The next day on the front page of the local newspaper was a photo of her laying on the ground. She was a mess (most odd to me was a very proper woman with her 8 year old daughter with blonde braids standing over her looking "with concern" at what must have been a horrible sight and sound.)

Should my sister have been able to sue the newspaper? Should Gabby Giffords - whose photo - pantyhose clad legs, skirt all messed up and bloody head has been seen a million times be able to sue?

Why did she have to say "that's me!" Especially since it seems there are some warrants for her arrest that have been oustanding and now will be served.

I don't think you can make the world "safe" for people who don't want to do their part. If she ran into a wall because she was not watching where she was going - does it mean the wall should not have been there? If it had been a bench - and she did a flip over the bench because she was not watching where she was going -- is the bench a hazard?
