Become a better you: Don't assault flight attendants

Joel Osteen's wife is in a civil lawsuit brought by a flight attendant she allegedly assaulted:

Rusty Hardin for the defense, your honor.

 

If Joel Osteen's wife follows the Golden Rule, then I guess she likes to be roughed up a bit. Not that ...

Seriously, 10 percent of some millionaire pastor's earnings seems a big much for what appears to be a minor scuffle.

Though I am sure Mr. Osteen would make the case that his wife doesn't have any money.

 

"But whosoever fails to clean your left armrest, let you turn your right armrest to her also." -- The Sermon on Airplane Etiquette, one of the lost Bible passages, intended to follow The Sermon on the Mount.

 

blessed are the poor, for they may be shat upon by thee.

 

This just may be the legal mismatch of all time. The plaintiff, by the way, is asking for 10 percent of Osteen's net worth.

I think if she is at fault, the right thing to do would be to admit it (three years ago) and ask forgiveness. I guess now it's up to the legal system to determine if this is a money grab by a flight attendant or just a case of a prideful, spoiled woman.

 

claude must be disappointed.
