Breaking: an olympic snowboarder had a practice accident and is now in an induced coma. I didn't catch the guy's name but he's 22 yrs old and there are updates on his facebook page.

It seems to me that athletes are treated with kid gloves compared to just regular folk. After what some athletes have done to people and to animals, let's not treat athletes better than anyone else. I wish this guy well but I bet nobody's in a hurry to "pull his plug".

Women seem to be the easiest targets for euthanasists but they'll advocate for the murder of either gender if there's money in it.

I hate to disagree about this, but I think we'll be reading his obituary soon. If anything, his athletic background increases the odds that he'll be denied the opportunity to recover from a brain injury. I hope I'm wrong, and his family is an exception. Odds are not in his favor.
