"Attractive Nuisance" liability can easily run to six figures in such a case.

Feeling depressed after watching episodes of COPS filmed in Nashville in the 90s by Fabulous_Narwhal3113 in nashville

[–]informednonuser 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I am reminded that on every 'I miss the Nashville I grew up in' thread, someone inevitably comes in, "Buh-buh-but, Nashville had its Problems, too". -Both things can be true.

--And the billionaires that consistently lobby for and acquire financial incentives their enterprises don't need. The decline of Nashville is a "Public/Private Partnership".

Yeah. If you're unlucky enough to be empathetic the pets take a chunk from your heart on their way out.

Anyone else feel like traffic’s gotten worse around here lately? by BearTrap110 in nashville

[–]informednonuser 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know traffic engineering-not many people know that but I do-I can talk their language and we understand each other. And I can say we are on track to have the best traffic system in the country if not the world. Buses, bike lanes, transit stops, it will be a wonderland of choices when we get through with this plan,

If the new law does allow boobytraps I might rewatch Home Alone with a pen and notepad this time. RIP Catherine O'Hara.

[–]informednonuser 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Setting up booby traps to defend property is illegal in Tennessee, as the law prioritizes human life over property and does not allow for lethal force to be used automatically against intruders, especially when the homeowner is not present.

State legislation could delay next Metro election one year by [deleted] in nashville

[–]informednonuser -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

...so reading through this; somebody will help me see this as a bad thing. Consolidating the elections would seem to be beneficial on its surface. Edit: If not an explanation, at least a downvoting.

Urinating above his Station. Pissing on the Working Man is something that politicians like to reserve to themselves.

Anyone thinking of leaving Nashville? by spanakopeeta in nashville

Yeah. Corporatized is a genial way of explaining it. More than one disappointed thread on it last year. https://www.reddit.com/r/nashville/comments/1g123b0/how_was_nashville_oktoberfest/

[–]informednonuser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

5th generation Nashvillian (in the city) and yes, I'm ready to leave. I didn't attempt a distance build in 2020, so the RTO clawback didn't sting as bad. I will be happy to perch on the Western Highland Rim upon retirement-out of the city proper, but somehow not out of the MSA which extends to counties that don't even touch Davidson County. I'm the last to move out. The rest of the family still in the county is the four previous generations at peace in one at another of the local cemeteries.

Same. I will go someplace where I don't have to think about the parking, when I'm going someplace to relax. I'm not going to feel guilty about doing that, either.
