Safer Saws – ChandlerBing

Table Saw Amputation Lawyer

6A: The Schmidt Firm, a personal injury law firm, writes on their website, “…manufacturers have refused to voluntarily place the safety devices on their products, citing an unreasonable increase in price (about $100 per table saw). Recently, a man who filed a table saw amputation lawsuit was awarded $1.5 million after the court found that table saw manufacturers were liable for not including the safety feature.”

6B: Manufacturers refused to use SawStop technology on their products because of the “unreasonable” price increase of each table saw which would be a mere $100 compared to the millions of dollars lost in a single lawsuit.

6C: This is a factual claim because of the evidence listed.

6D: The SawStop technology (which can save 4,000 amputations per year) would cost table saw manufacturers around $100 per table saw to implement this technology. This does not bode well for these companies because they do not want to lose profit. In one case, a man who lost his finger in a table saw incident filed a lawsuit against a table saw manufacturer because it is the companies duty to prevent injuries of any kind. That company lost $1.5 million in the lawsuit rather than $100 to provide the SawStop safety feature.

Feds Might Force Table Saw Makers to Adopt Radically Safer Technology

1A:  Table saw manufacturers claim “If the [Consumer Product Safety Commission] makes the technology mandatory for table saws, that could give [Stephen] Gass a legal monopoly over the table-saw industry…”

1B: Manufacturers are worried that if the CPSC mandates SawStop tech for all table saws then Gass would have a monopoly over the industry until his patents expire.

1C: This is an opinionated claim formed by manufacturers.

1D: It is true that Gass’ invention is protected by legal patents which means that no one can create and implement the same idea to their table saws without facing legal ramifications. This could result in Gass jacking up the prices of this safe technology due to lack of competition.

1E: Gass’ oldest patents expire in the year 2021 which means other companies can design similar concepts of the SawStop feature. Also, Gass’ aim is to save people from suffering amputations and possibly living without fingers for the rest of their lives.

Saws Cut Off 4,000 Fingers a Year

11A:  Tom Corbett, a contractor who severed four fingers in an incident regarding a table saw states, “Back in the early 70s and 80s before there were airbags there was people getting killed ridiculously in car crashes and all of a sudden they have to have airbags in them they have to have safety equipment. I don’t see any differences for the saws.”

11B: Corbett compares the use of airbags and SawStop technology.

11C: This is a persuasive claim.

11D: Corbett emphasizes how imperative airbags are for automobiles. Before 1968, cars did not have mandatory airbags and the risk of fatality was evident. When airbags were deemed mandatory for all automobiles, fewer people were dying from car accidents. Corbett mentions that there is no difference when it comes to saw safety. He knows that every saw should have this technology. Corbett’s life changed forever because of the lack of modern safety technology.

SawStop Inventor Steve Gass Defends the Latest Tablesaw Verdicts

9A: “I think we could argue about whether the law is wrong if you don’t believe that manufacturers should have an obligation to make their products reasonably safe…”

9B: Steve Gass believes that the law should require power tool manufacturers to make their products as safe as they possibly can.

9C: This is an opinionated claim.

9D: Manufacturers absolutely should use the technology that is available on the market to provide the safest product they can create. Companies must always keep their consumer’s best interest in mind when developing new tools or updating old ones. This will prevent the 4,000 amputations yearly and save companies millions in lawsuits.

Power Tool Industry too Powerful to Regulate?

12(Shop Owner)A: Gerald Wheeler, a wood shop owner explains the cost of injuries, “Not long before, two of his employees had been maimed within a few weeks of each other. Wheeler felt awful about the injuries, the loss of two good workers, the $95,000 in medical bills, and the doubling of his workers-compensation rates.”

12B: Wheeler speaks for most shop owners when he explains the struggle of paying so much money for compensation for something that could have easily been prevented.

12C: This claim is based on facts that can be backed up by statistics therefore it is a factual claim.

12DIt is extremely costly for shop owners to pay workers comp to those who have accidentally been involved in an accident at work. Wheeler also stats that he paid $95,000 in medical bills for two injured workers. He also must pay them their rate every week even though they are not working. Wheeler also had to find workers to replace the skilled ones that he already had. All of this could have been prevented if Wheeler obtained the SawStop tech and paid a little extra to save him thousands of dollars.

Safer saws- Princess45

10a. ”I have not lived a single day without regretting that accident,” Tom wrote. “If your device prevents even one person from going through what I have gone through, it is a world class accomplishment.”

10b. Tom doesn’t want anyone else to go through what he went through.

11B. David had his thumb amputated because of a table saw accident, so he explains how unforgiving the machine is, and how he has to live with no thumb for the rest of his life

11C. This is an opinion based claim, because as funny as it sounds some people might not have the same opinion as David does.

11D. This is a reasonable claim. I know I saw a kid in my wood shop class have his finger sawed off freshman year, and it was not a pretty sight.

11E. There is no reason to refute this claim.

12A. Steve glass, the inventor of the SawStop, put his finger to the test, and put his finger to the saw blade.

12E. There is no reason to refute this claim.

Proposal+5—Killroy513

*** I need to find a few book sources***

 

Topic: Prohibition.

Thesis: The Prohibition was started to outlaw alcohol but boosted illegal activity helping to create the sport of NASCAR.

My topic is not one of the average topics listed by my peers. The topic is about how during the American Prohibition, the outlaw of alcohol was in place, it was impossible to get any kind of liquor or beer. This would boost illegal activity from gangs forming in the major cities, to alcohol runners. The Alcohol runners were men that smuggled alcohol in modified cars that could max the speed limit. These cars were built to run from the cops.

https://www.theguardian.com/film/2012/aug/26/lawless-prohibition-gangsters-speakeasies

This source indicates how the laws set in place for the legalization of alcohol did not work. It explains how gangsters became popular and how more illegal activity had commenced. It goes from the beginning of the amendment to its end.

It proves that illegal activities increased when the laws were enacted. These gangsters would run cities. The most well known of the gangsters was Al Capone. He owned Chicago.

https://www.carkeys.co.uk/news/the-story-of-how-moonshiners-created-the-performance-car

This source explains how alcohol smugglers would modify their cars so they can outrun the police. Basically this is how the performance cars were first created and how science and skill perfected these cars.

It proves that the prohibition had a mark on modified cars and sparked the interest of a whole new movement. This movement would age into one of Americas coolest sports, NASCAR.

http://theroaringtwentieshistory.blogspot.com/2010/06/prohibition-and-speakeasies.html

This source shows that illegal activity boosted with these laws in place. The links talks about how secret bars were created in towns and cities so that the people could still drink. Passwords and other forms of identification were used to keep the bars running. Music and liquor was the most important part of these bars. In big cities many gangsters created these bars and generated a ton of money from them.

This proves that the laws did not really work and boosted the illegal business of U.S. citizens. Many broke the law because it ruined the lives of small town business but also helped make many very wealthy.

https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/during-prohibition-your-doctor-could-write-you-prescription-booze-180947940/

This source explains how doctors during the prohibition would break the rules and proscribe their patients with alcohol. The source indicates that many doctors would prescribe people with this so they could get alcohol. This in turn would be illegal.

This proves that the medical profession also was against the law and broke the law.

http://prohibitionincanada.blogspot.com/p/smuggling-bootegging-and-something.html

This source shows that a lot of the alcohol that was used in the United States was bootlegged from Canada. The modified cars were used to smuggled these drinks over the border in the winter time. These men would drive over the lakes to make a profit. ships were also used as well. Many shipments were hidden.

This proves that other nations benefited off the law that lasted an era. People would break the law and commit illegal acts to make a profit. Business was good, and the rick was worth the reward. These cars were the great grandfathers to today’s NASCAR cars.

Safer Saws – theintern

Manufacturers

1A. “The flesh detection technology stops a blade instantly when it is touched by human flesh.”

1B. Theres a flesh detection technology that detects if human flesh is near the blade which then stops instantly.

1C. This is a factual claim because it is a personal testimony by the manufactures.

1D. There is no real evidence determining that this technology actually stops instantly, or reviews from real people who own this tool and have actually tried it.

Customers

2A. “Bosch Tool “colluded with its competitors” to develop their own version, and continued to sell their dangerous table and miter saws.”

2B. This claim states that after a discussion with their competitors they still continued to sell their dangerous tools.

2C. This statement is a factual claim because of the verified information Bosch tools told.

2D. The claim persuades me to think that Bosch could’ve had a safer tool for their consumers but they decided not to and continued to sell dangerous saws hoping that their consumers wouldn’t notice. I don’t understand why only table saws are dangerous and not the rest of the tools.

Injured Plaintiffs

5A. “The bringer of the suit is essentially claiming that his permanent and “traumatic injury” could have been prevented if Bosch and its competitors had not rejected and fought against the safety technology.”

5B. The claims states that Bosch could have prevented these lawsuits if and only if they did not reject against safety technology.

5C. This statement is very opinionated because the bringer is biased about the Bosch’s decision of not securing the safety of their consumers.

5D. The claim is very biased from a user’s perspective of a bad experience the user had. The claims state that Bosch could of prevented these incidents but theres not enough statistic evidence showing the percentage of people injured.

Steve Gass Himself

9A.  “petition from Gass, engineers at the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission recommended that the government begin a “rulemaking process” that could result in mandatory safety standards for table saws.”

9B. This claim explains how Gass himself recommended that the government make rules towards table saws and make sure that they provide more safety.

9C. This claim is more so a proposal because Gass suggested ideas to the government without the government asking for them.

9D. Theres not evidence of the petition succeeding or if the government ever agreed to it. Gass thinks he knows best but does he? This claim can be arguable.

Power tool product reviewers

10A. “Existing Underwriters Laboratories document ANSI/UL 987 includes provisions for maintaining safe distance from saw blades and instructions for proper use.”

10B. This claim clarifies that under this document “ANSI/UL 987” there are safety regulations to be followed.

10C. This statement is a proposal claim because it suggests the consumers to think twice before standing to close to the blades.

10D. The claim is reasonable and gives a precaution that users should consider. However it contradicts the product tools purpose of it being safe and a document should not be stating the danger there is.

Safer Saws- Yoshi

  • (1) 8A. Pro tool reviews wrote, “On top of all this, in terms of table saw safety, kickbacks are certainly more dangerous, and cause far more injuries each year, than cutting off fingers. Currently new advances are already being implemented through UL approval guidelines (new for 2010) to incorporate these safeguards.”

8B. Kickbacks cause more injuries over cutting fingers

8C. Evaluation claim

8D. The claim can be factual, but has no source to prove it. The writer says kickbacks cause more injury than someone accidentally cutting their finger off.

8E. I disagree with it, because they didn’t add a source to prove it. I myself have never heard of someone getting injured by a kickback, but I sure have heard a lot more people cutting their finger off from a saw.

  • (2) 4A. Roy Berendsohn said “Basically, the Bosch tool uses a sensing circuit that’s similar to the one SawStop patented years ago, but not identical. Where SawStop’s technology jammed the saw by running a piece of aluminum into it, wrecking the blade, Bosch’s cartridge system can save the saw blade. Whether Bosch’s design is too similar is a matter for the courts.”

4B. Both the Bosch tool and the SawStop use different technology to stop the blade and they are not the same. Berendsohn is basically saying there was no reason for the two to go to court because they are nothing alike.

4C. Opinion Claim

4D. The claim that they shouldn’t go to court is a opinion claim.

4E. I believe the two should go to court because the designs are fairly similar, and SawStop was presented to Bosch but they denied him.

  • (3) 8A. Written by Myron Levin in Mother Jones, “according to the Consumer Product Safety Commission (PDF), resulting in more than 33,000 emergency room visits and 4,000 amputations. At an average cost of $35,000 each, these accidents lead to more than $2.3 billion in societal costs annually including medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.”

8B. “At an average cost of $35,000 each, these accidents lead to more than $2.3 billion in societal costs annually including medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering”

8C. Factual Claim

8D. The claim states how much money is spent with people that get injured with saws.

8E. I agree with this claim because there is evidence backing it up.

  • (4) 1A. SawStop Website says, “Our saws, besides being the highest quality and best featured saws in their market segments, feature the ability to detect contact with skin and stop the blade in less than 5 milliseconds.”

1B. “besides being the highest quality and best featured saws in their market segments”

1C. Opinion Claim

1D. This claim states that SawStop is the best quality and the best brand of saws in the market.

1E. I disagree with this claim because I think Bosch has a better quality saw. I think the fact that Bosch’s saw is reusable after it stops makes it better.

  • (5) 6A. An injury Lawyer claims, “The SawStop and other table saw safety devices are actually very simple. They run an electrical current through the saw blade that is attached to a current monitor. When the blade is cutting wood (a poor conductor of electricity) the electrical current in the blade remains constant. If the blade touches flesh (a relatively good conductor of electricity) the current in the blade drops.”

6B. “The SawStop and other table saw safety devices are actually very simple.”

6C. Opinion Claim

6D. The lawyer claims that, the saws are very simple.

6E. I don’t think they are simple, I actually think they are very confusing. I still don’t understand how the blade even stops that fast.

4. Implementing a Public Health Approach to Gun Violence Prevention: The Importance of Physician Engagement

http://annals.org/aim/article/1569946

The Essential Content Of The Article -He referenced survey findings indicating that most physicians viewed gun violence as a public health problem and that they supported a more active role for the profession in preventing it.  Fear has also shaped the gun policy debate. Whether to muster support for “stand your ground” laws or rally in opposition to proposals that would track gun purchases to aid law enforcement investigations, fear is an element of how we talk about guns.

What it Proves- This article proves there are many laws representing guns and many people support it . Also the study of people viewing to look into getting guns need to be evaluated to see if they are mentally competent.

5. Rates of intimate partner violence in the United States.

Proposal+5–collegegirl

Proposal- For my research paper, I am going to focus on the controversial topic of inequality in the justice system. There have been many cases in the past couple of years where there have been white cops who have gotten away with crimes against blacks. A few years ago, the Black Lives Matter campaign began after Treyvon Martin was shot and killed by George Zimmerman. Zimmerman was found not guilty in this case, which started the movement of Black Lives Matter.

Why is it that as much attention as the Black Lives Matter Movement campaign makes, why does racial inequality still exist today.
