Scent Lok Lawsuit update

I just heard that hunters in Indiana and Florida have filed Class Action Lawsuits against Scent Lok. The Florida suit names not only Scent Lok, Cabelas' Inc, Browning, Gander Mountain Bass Pros Shops - but also includes Cabelas's Wholesale Inc. and Robinson Outdoors (Scent Shield). Since the notice and subpoenas have not been served yet, Scent Lok may not even now this is coming - I guess I should notify them. I'll do it now. That makes a total of five states: Minnesota, Wisconsin, Indiana, Illinois and Florida.

I just heard that, on www.Justia.com, one of the people who filed a law suit against Scent Lok, stated in their deposition, that they filed suit because they had been to this (my Scent Lok / Activated Carbon Science, www.TRMichels.com/ActivatedCarbonScience.html) web page, and realized that they'd been ripped of - by Scent Lok. To find lawsuits against Scent Lok - type in the letters ALS.

Anyone with a lick of sense, who actually reads what is on this page- and on page 2 - knows that activated carbon cannot work the way the manufacturers of hunting clothing say it can.

Scent Lok Corporate Head's Deposition - Sealed

At the same time I heard that ALS's corporate heads have also been deposed, but that their testimony has been sealed. What's with that … I thought we had a little legal precedent here in the USA called the "Freedom of Information Act". Why is it that the depositions of those suing Scent Lok are made public, but Scent Lok's lawyers have the depositions of the Scent Lok corporate heads sealed? Is that fair - to the hunting public?

Figure those clothes cost just a little more than other quality clothes, but not too the point it is overly excessive. I am a bit skeptical of how well any carbon clothes really work myself, but that hardly makes me believe that somehow entitles me to anything for purchsing those clothes.

Are the suits also being filed against scent blocker? Shame greed is involved in smearing with this either way.

Required reading in grade school used to be stuff like Jack and the Beanstalk (now it's MyTwo Mommies:rolleyes:). The part where the sleazebag trades his bag of magic beans for Jack's cow is a learning experience meant to prevent such things as this.

Advertising and more testimonials than a traveling tent revival are a warning that the B.S. meter is pegged in the red zone. I never buy anything that is heavily marketed.

As for the law suit. I think if you get hurt, that the pain is to ensure that you think better next time. Our court system should not reward the weak or weak minded.:D
