Why dont you ask the mod to remove your post. It reflects badly on this forum.
Who is "they?" We're all Freepers...if FR vanishes, we all miss it. It's near the middle of the second month and the Freepathon is only halfway done. It's really a shame.
It’s bad
tell me about it
“Something is going to give. That something is your urethra.”
That is the single most terrifying post I have ever read on Freerepublic!
LOL
The point of the article is not about the pros or cons of catheters or a lot of the other nonsense and "owchies!".
It is about the senseless beating and near killing of a 70 year old nurse by a younger male patient in one of our large metropolitan hospitals. Is this what we have devolved into in our society?
Is this not a horrendous thing? Where is the outrage? I see little of it in the article. All I see is mild amazement from the staff and another criminal case that will likely be plead down to a light sentence. Meanwhile, if the nurse doesn't die she will likely be maimed for life.
Maybe I missed something in my inattentive youth, but 50 years ago I never heard of such a thing happening in America. Did I miss it?
No, you’re exactly right. It really wasn’t so long ago that something like this would have provoked outrage. Unfortunately, society has deteriorated to the point that beatings of elders and rapes of infants are fairly commonplace.
Insanity is too mild a word for it.
Assaults of nurses have been very common. It is not just one of Obama’s people. It is also elderly assaults on staff due to dementia. It has been a problem for years, and is getting worse. A coarsening of our society.
“Urethra” is Kwincii’s sister?
Which reminds me of a story from my youth. Two of my brother’s friends slept with the same girl of loose morals. Dave felt some unpleasantness afterward and got checked out. The doctor confirmed that he had an STD and gave him the appropriate medication. Dave told Jimmy that he needed to get checked out as well, so Jimmy went to the doctor and got one of those big Q-tips with a wooden stick inserted up his urethra to get a sample for the lab. Jimmy said it was the worst pain ever. Until the doctor came back in the room and said the sample had gotten contaminated and he was going to have to do the Q-tip procedure again. Evidently, the second time was exponentially more painful. It made me thankful that I didn’t have “game” like those guys.
Eight posts from you on this thread displaying your righteous outrage. We got it . . .
Kwinnci — let me guess...
Nurses need to carry stun guns these days.

I could tell your stories that would curl your toenails. If you wish?……...
