    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">According to the lawsuit, Iverson, Moore and Crossover Promotions were negligent by hiring "dangerous individuals'' who had shown a propensity toward unprovoked violence. Iverson, Moore and security team members all are named in the four lawsuits - one on behalf of each plaintiff. Each has requested a jury trial and $600,000 in damages, plus legal fees.</div>

    Now....to the dangerous individuals part....would you hire some small wimpy guy to protect you? I don't think so....I would want a dangerous person protecting me.

    I don't think dangerous means big and intimidating, but rather the bolded part of the quote. Seems to be a valid case.
