most likely a smoke screen for some more important things they are trying to hide from the public eye

RIP media circus. On to the next heart wrenching news story. What will it be? A cute little white girl who was found dead in her basement? A pretty white woman who was killed by her husband? A little Cuban boy who made it to Florida?

Certainly Michael Jackson's ailing and fragile nose. If he takes the witness stand though, it's bound to grow

I'm going to repeat what I posted in the official Shiavo thread in P & N:

All esle aside. This Michel Shiavo guy is a class A P...R...I...C...K!

What kind of horses ASS wouldn't even allow the parents of their dying daughter be by her side in her final hours. Forget feeding tubes and all of the other BS.

That is just plain un-human and IMO this action alone proves that this man is lower than whale sh!t, and whale sh!t, my friends, is at the bottom of the ocean.
Very true!

If someone I loved was being kept alive due to her parents wishes, taking me to court, and all this while I had to slowly watch her get old in that bed in a vegatative state, I might be a prick to her family too. It wasn't like she was going to get any better. He spent a lot of money trying to get her help, and in the end the medical community at large said she was a vegetable. Yet, her parents kept fighting.

Sorry, in his position, I would be pretty pissed off too and would probably deny them access at the last moments of her life. Heck, when you think about it, her last moments of her life were probably 15 years ago. Her parents are better off thinking of her moments back then instead of now.

Not that I give a crap about this case in the end. If people look at this whole ordeal intelligently, they will make out a "living will" and make sure that is carried out in the end if something like this ever happens. However, you won't see that happening anytime soon. People seem to think that a living will is something that doctors will look at and deny people the help they need. Scary.

What we should learn from the Schavio Case.

dug777,

You need to be mighty careful of who you try to boss around here.

Just a friendly heads up...

And i'm going to repeat what i posted in the schiavo thread in P&N in response to you:

Maybe the parents should've thought twice about slandering and libeling michael. Also, when they decided to sell off those donation lists to special interest groups, they turned into pure scum. I wouldn't let them near my wife either.

I agree. This stuff doesn't belong in OT. Return to your flametastic P&N.

We need to sticky this in OT for people who want to know what the Playp&N is like without actually going there.

i agree with this, but for some reason i'm feeling particularly pissed off this morning. i think its the lack of sleep, the fact that i've got nothing to do this morning at work, and my empty stomach.
