This is a weak analogy. Flip phones were created much later than a horse buggy. And even so, flip phones still perform the main purpose of a phone: calling.

As for that, the argument itself does sound a bit convincing at first glance. The parallels seem pretty even and accurate. But a flip phone will still work, no matter what time or era it is.

As a judge, i would rule in favor if Bakilana

By confiscating her password and forcing her to work for long hours, Bakilana had cause intentional infliction of emotional distress toward kiwanuka.

Bakilana has intentionally inflicted emotional distress to Kiwanuka by taking extreme/outrageous conduct such as taking her passwords and mentally abuse Kiwanuka.

But, that's being said, Kiwanuka does not present any proof about her accusation. (recording or witnesses). If Kiwanuka provide them, as a judge I will rule in favour of her. But since there is still a reasonable doubt that the accusation is false, i would rule in favor of Bakilana.

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

The fine details surrounding the invention of one of the United States' favorite snack foods are somewhat hazy. There are several different claims on how the potato chip was invented, but some evidence shows a man named George Crum, a cook and restaurateur was said to have come up with the idea for the tasty crisp.  

Born by the name of George Speck in 1824 in Saratoga Lake, New York, Crum was the son of an African American father and Native American mother, a member of the Huron tribe. He professionally adopted the name "Crum," as it was the name his father used in his career as a jockey. As a young man, Crum worked as a guide in the Adirondack Mountains and as an Indian trader. Eventually, he came to realize that he possessed exceptional talent in the culinary arts.
