Man Sues Neighbor Claiming Wi-Fi Made Him Sick

Posted by samzenpus on from the bad-waves dept.

OrangeMonkey11 writes "A Santa Fe man who claims to suffer from 'electromagnetic sensitivities' has sued his neighbor after she refused to stop using wireless devices. 59-year-old Arthur Firstenberg claims his sensitivity can be set off by cellphones, routers and other electronic devices. From the article: 'Firstenberg, 59, wanted Raphaela Monribot to limit her use of the devices. "I asked her to work with me," he said. "Basically, she refused." So he sued Monribot in state district court, seeking $530,000 in damages and an injunction to force her to turn off the electronics. "Being the target of this lawsuit has affected me very adversely," Monribot said Friday in response to e-mailed questions. "I feel as if my life and liberty are under attack for no valid reason, and it has forced me to have to defend my very basic human rights."'"

    ...and lack of any knowledge of what electromagnetic waves are/do is making me sick. I have "stupidity sensitivities" so please turn off your brain.

    How about YOU stop trying to boss us around? Other than the stable countries in the north (Egypt and Sudan) and south (South Africa), I don't know the ~20 different African hellholes that are being run by dictatorial bastards that let their people starve to death.

    Tough shit. Deal with it.

    It's MY mouth not yours. I'm not your slave and you're not my plantation master. So fuck off. If I want to say "somewhere in Africa" I will, and if you don't like it, then shove a fork in your eyes so you can't read what I wrote, you conttrolign, bossy, aergumentative, anti-free-speech asshole.

    "somewhere in Africa"
    "somewhere in Africa"
    "somewhere in Africa"

    There. Make me stop. I dare you.
