• Doctors: Mississippi Baby ‘Functionally Cured’ of HIV

  March 3, 2013 at 11:00pm

  This story is joyous and sad at the same time. Obviously the mother did not get proper prenatal care, or she would have known she had HIV. There is no reason for that. There are plenty of programs to allow women who can not afford it to get prenatal care. Then, after doctors go to extraordinary lengths to save her baby from HIV, she just stopped giving the baby the meds. In my book that is child abuse. It is just so sad.

• Florida Man Posts Pics of Him and His Kids Playing With Manatee Calf — Ends up Getting Arrested for Harassment

  There is a big difference between interacting with an animal and dragging a baby out of the water and letting your child sit on it. If a friendly dog comes up to you, do you sit on it?

• Find Out How Police Used Provision in Healthcare Law to Confiscate Man’s Camera and Charge Him With Crimes

  I would need to see some video before I really make a judgment. I was in the French Quarter once during Mardi Gras and a friend of mine broke her ankle BADLY. The ambulance came and some jerk was filming. He kept shoving the camera in her face and trying to get close in to film her dangling foot, and the EMTs kept having to go around him. The police told him to stop and he kept saying “freedom of the press! I have a right to film!” After one of the EMTs trying to carry the stretcher to the ambulance almost tripped over him (they won’t roll over cobblestones), one of my large male friends told him exactly where he was going to put the gentleman’s camera if he didn’t move along. Morons wanting to make a buck on Youtube regularly get in the way of rescue personnel, and then claim their freedom is being infringed upon. Forgive me if I have trouble feeling sorry for this voyeuristic little weasel.

• Pregnant Woman Dies After Irish Doctors Reportedly Refuse to Perform Abortion: ‘It’s a Catholic Country’

  So by your logic, we shouldn’t judge those who have their daughters undergo female genital mutilation, or people who like little boys. Maybe we shouldn’t have laws at all. Who are we to judge someone else by our values? That is part of what makes a society you idiot… deciding on a shared set of values and definition of right and wrong.

• Red Lobster Waitress Reportedly Attacked for Refilling Water Glasses Too Often

  August 18, 2012 at 11:46am

  I have a guess why these “ladies” became upset. Decades ago when I worked at RL, some customers who were too cheap to pay for a beverage, but didn’t want to drink water would ask for extra lemons for their water. They would make you bring two whole lemons cut up, then they would take sugar packets and make themselves what we called “redneck lemonade” Generally people who drank redneck lemonade didn’t tip either. They would get mad if you tried to refill their water because it watered down their drink, but if a roaming manager sees that you aren’t keeping a table’s glasses full you get in trouble from them. No win.

• ‘An Issue of Liberty’: Judge Allows Mother of Obese Child to Move States…For Now

  June 29, 2012 at 2:25pm

  I wish there were more specifics on this case. In all the cases I have read where they claimed the child was taken solely on the basis of weight, it was actually because of dangerous medical complications resulting from their weight and the parents refusal to take steps to save their child’s life. If a parent refuses to treat a child’s type 1 diabetes, putting them at risk of death the public demands the child be saved. If it is obeisity related type 2 do we turn a blind eye? Most of these actions are initated by doctors treating children in hospitals. If she was starving her child would it be OK for her to move to excape the supervision of the court?

• What Is Causing the Mysterious E.Coli Outbreak in Southern States?

  As long as animals poop, and vegetables are grown in the ground, there will be some level of foodbourne illness. All we can do is try our best to minimize it.

• ‘Elixir of Youth’: Scientists to Generate ‘Unlimited Supply’ of Human Eggs That Could Make Women Fertile as Long as Men

  April 13, 2012 at 6:06pm

  This wouldn’t only be about women in their 50′s. Some women go into premature menopause for a variety of reasons. They lose their fertility before they even hit their 40′s. Maybe it could also be applied to women who have lost their fertility to cancer treatments. I am always wary of arguments that say something is bad because someone could use it in a bad way. That’s like saying we shouldn’t get to have guns, because some people use them for crime.

• Romney Challenges Student Demanding ‘Free’ Birth Control In Order to be ‘Happy’

  March 20, 2012 at 2:15pm

  Acually, this woman is the best argument for free birth control I have ever seen. Someone PLEASE give her free birth control before she reproduces!!

• Berkeley Police Too ‘Occupied’ to Deal With Brutal Beating That Left Man Dead

  I wonder how long it will be before some bleeding-heart blames this on budget cuts that kept this poor victimized man suffering from mental health problems from getting the help he needed.
