"Deemed unlikely" assertion challenge

edit

I challenge the verifiability of this sentence in the article (regarding civil lawsuits against activists who deflate tires in protest against SUVs):

Success in these civil law cases is deemed unlikely.

"Deemed" means to come to a conclusion. Who has deemed their success to be unlikely? Unless there's a source, this rather unusual assertion should be removed. Even if one dislikes SUVs, and even if one believes that SUVs harm people, it seems reasonable that a person would be likely to prevail in a civil action against a tire-deflater on trespass grounds.

It's been over two months with no comments or responses, so I have removed the statement in question. If you put it back in the article, please clearly state your reasoning here, and provide a reliable source. Bry9000 (talk) 05:39, 25 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
