BALTIMORE, MD. -- A Baltimore man is suing his parents for conceiving him as a white male.

This week, a federal judge refused to toss out the lawsuit, setting up a trial for October.

Dustin Campy, 33, is accusing his parents of giving birth to him as a white male instead of another race. Dustin claims that people of other races get benefits such as free doctor’s visits and payment for their jobs “under the table” to avoid taxes.

”Other people can come into our country and get off paying for things because they are not a citizen,” quotes Dustin. “I want all the money back that I had to pay over the years. I’m putting the blame on my parents for bringing me into the world as a caucasian who has to abide by everything.”

He is seeking more than $300,000 in damages for medical bills and taxes that he had to pay over the course of his life.

Dustin’s parents would not release an official statement at this time.

U.S. District Judge Gary Wibes said that a jury should decide the matter.

    That Judge should lose his seat. This is even more ridiculous than overweight people suing the places that served them the horrible food. Don't you just love this society? We don't have to take responsibilty for anything. Hey, I'm a recovering alcoholic. Maybe I should sue the liquor companies. The flaw with that is, I would have to deny the responsibility for causing my own misery. So, I would then still be drinking (or most likely dead).

By the way Micky, do they have group rates?

Yes, the guy is annoying, but I'm way more angry at the stupid judge who didn't throw this out. Fools like him cost the taxpayers millions of dollars a year. But he doesn't care; it's not his money.

Wow...wow...this is possibly the most ridiculous thing i've heard. Unless his parents are black (not saying that the case is any better, but at least there is some case of making sense out of it) the case should be thrown out, and that judge should have his head inspected.

I'm losing faith in our judicial system. Not for inequality or whatever people gripe about, but just sheer stupidity. Unhappy

I agree, the Judge should be removed on a misconduct behaviour trial. Having a son is no crime in USA (I believe in China it is if ou have more than one) and the parents caused no harm in the act of birth, so this should have been rejected.
 
Nobody can sue against the laws of nature, two caucasians will have a caucasian son or daughter(Unless the milkman is from a minority LOL).
 
It's absolutely unbelievable. I believe the guy and his parents are trying to make a point, probably from a white supremacy group and the judge is the useful idiot.

What the hell?
 
This case should not go to court.  The guy should be kicked in the nards and sent on his way.
