Who decides what is "nonsense"? Slippery, slippery, slope!
Let's pretend this will come before a judge and will be dismissed as quickly as possible. I am sure that a vast majority of frivolous lawsuits result in little more than a nominal waste of the court's time and the people's money. The exceptions do, and should, make big news; but the only alternative is to have some authority (!) pre-determining (which'd also take time and money) who can bring about civil action. That's scary in an Orwellian sorta way.
+1; maybe we should have internet forums judge the merit of everyone's lawsuit.
