        The difference is that Ricky would actually be able to talk the judge into agreeing with him:

        Your honour, I’m moving the court to sentence Mr. Lahey to pay me like a million dollars for being a drunk bastard and for not buying weed from me anymore. He used to buy all his weed from me but now that he’s back on the liquor he doesn’t smoke weed any more and that is fucked up. Your honour, I try to run a small business and now this drunk trailer park supervisor is violating all my human amendment charters.

        Ricky wouldn’t be so litigious. He’d have to pay for a lawyer, most of which cost more than $12.35, some hash and six or seven sticks of pepperoni (pepperoni in this case being a local misnomer for what’s really closer to a polish sausage, nova Scotia has weird food quirks)
