Harold, or Harry, as he was known to his friends, was admittedly a somewhat odd individual. It was well known in the small town in which he lived that Harry developed quite a strong fear and believed "orange is evil."Ever since he returned from Tennessee, he became quite agitated around people wearing orange shirts.

On an otherwise boring afternoon, Larry and Ralph, who were wearing bright orange shirts, went looking for their buddy Harry. When they found him, Harry was riding his new Rock banger 6000 mountain bike over the Charles River Bridge.

They waived large-sticks over their heads and yelled "when the moon is full, we turn you orange!" Harry leaped off his bike and ran away in hysterical fear, bumping into lampposts as he went. As he was running down the street, Harry saw Daryl, who was wearing an orange shirt, walk into Paul's Camera Shop. Intending to trap what he assumed was one of the evils who had just threatened him, Harry ran to the shop, slammed the door with great force, and quickly barricaded the door with several large recycling drums. Unfortunately, at that very moment, Martha, who had been in the store, started to leave. The slamming door hit Martha in the face, immediately knocking her unconscious and abruptly terminating her modeling career.

Paul, thinking the store was under attack by international terrorists, drew his duly licensed .44 magnum (the most powerful handgun in the world) and fired several rounds through the door, hitting Harry (who survived) and hitting several members of a passing band of rock musicians.

John, who was standing inside the store next to the door, was struck by several splinters and developed a permanent fear of loud noises as a result of the experience.

Identify all of the claims and defenses that might reasonably be asserted by all of the participants in this regrettable drama and explain which claims are likely to prevail and why.
