+100 Victim Serial Killer Pays Fine, Avoids Trial, Prison, And Death Penalty

WASHINGTON (The Nil Admirari) - General Motors, a person who confessed to killing over 100 people using a defective ignition switch in automobiles it manufactured, agreed to pay $900 million yesterday. This morning, GM announced it was "very sorry" for the first degree murders it was responsible for committing over more than a decade, and asserted a trial resulting in either life in prison or the death penalty was not a realistic criminal penalty for the type of person it was.

And...

The Justice Department explained it thought the settlement with GM, whom it compared to serial killer Ford and its use of faulty gas tanks to murder people in the 1970s, was "absolutely fair," and the punishment "totally brought justice to those killed by GM."

1. Very simple. GM was not a person when they paid the fine. Now they are.

You're welcome..glad to clear that up.

5. So they are only a person when it is legally in their favor to be one.

Swell.
