avatar! | 1,807 Posted May 13, 2022 Author Share Posted May 13, 2022 (edited) Great news - Ex-Nurse Sentenced to Probation in Patient Medication Death Nashville Criminal Court Judge Jennifer Smith said Vaught would receive judicial diversion, a way for first-time offenders to have their charges dropped and their records expunged after successfully completing probation. Prosecutors had argued against diversion, although they were not opposed to probation. The crowd of nurses outside protesting cheered, cried and hugged after hearing the sentence. The relief came after the health care workers spent hours in the sun and clung to every word of the judge’s lengthy sentencing explanation, some linked in a chain with hands locked. Nurses have an incredibly difficult and demanding job. Furthermore, they often receive shit salary despite the literally life-or-death decisions they must make. Everyone on occasion will make mistakes. If you read through the history of this case, it becomes evident that the real culprit is the famed Vanderbilt University Medical Center which had numerous issues with how they handled patients before this, and then they threw her under the bus! I don't believe this should ever have come to trial, but I'm glad the best possible outcome occurred. Edited May 13, 2022 by avatar! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that was nice, the good form of "kick'em while they're down" I think we can get behind. The losers though that was the store employees, but no, it was them taking the mighty boot.

avatar! | 1,807 Posted May 30, 2022 Author Share Posted May 30, 2022 Here's why we should stop using mental illness as the scapegoat in mass shootings https://www.caller.com/story/news/local/2022/05/30/uvalde-texas-stop-using-mental-illness-scapegoat-mass-shootings/9940213002/ According to a statement by the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) Texas, the overwhelming majority of people with mental illness are not violent. In fact, people with mental illness are more likely to be the victims of violence, rather than the perpetrators. Less than 10 percent of shootings nationwide involved people with mental illness. When we rush to make a false correlation between mental illness and mass shootings, we’re actually keeping people from seeking much needed services and perpetuating stigma. It applies to crime in general, not just shootings. Every single time a criminal is caught, they will inevitably claim "mental issues". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fallout from this will last years. Expect key people to "retire" and "relocate" in a bid to try and save their sorry asses 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrWunderful | 2,926 Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 Perfect case of why arming teachers is such a stupid fucking talking point. Like, fully trained cops bitch out, but Miss Saltenberger, the kind, older matronly widow- is supposed to take out a psycho-armor-wearing-teenager with 17 30-round mags for a full auto Ar-15? Like is she packing a .22 pea shooter with impeccable aim? She only needs one through the eye? Or does she pull out akimbo 44 mags and just start clapping active shooters until they rag doll out the door? Get the F out of here. Anyone that believes that should be sterilized and left on an island lord of the flies style. Complete low iq trash, and that includes politicians. Nothing lower. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabonga | 2,314 Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 (edited) According to a highly placed source (who maybe should actually know better - but consider the source) a 9mm handgun should be enough to take out a bad guy (or maybe a rampaging gorilla) by giving major organs an out of body experience. In any event I doubt whoever would need one of these: Edited June 1, 2022 by Tabonga Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanooki | 4,930 Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 Maybe you need sterilization if you're that stupid eh? Let's assume for a moment Miss Salty there did have a pistol, licensed, trained with conceal and carry, who is to say she wouldn't have solved the problem? At the minimum she would have had a better chance of survival given what those confused dipshit cops did...nothing, nothing but keeping parents out while hiding on the outside claiming it was a barricade situation. They'll hang for that shit in court and the court of public opinion, they won't be safe, and deserve not to be after that shit show. How dare you claim that spouted off nonsense leftist unfounded talking points like some perpetually trolling authority figure and love to use bullshit closing statements that anyone who disagrees with you is anything from a fucking moron, to a trump tea bagger to needing forced sterilization like some eugenics cure probably to scare off any argument. Not just a troll, but a coward, specifically using your wording, a "low iq" coward at that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Listen to yourself. You sound like a fucking idiot. How am I a coward? Cant be more cowardly than the texas cops that let children get slaughtered while they waited for 40 minutes to go in. Using words like “leftist” doesnt make you smart-I didnt name any political party, but you must have a guilty conscience, assuming you brought up Trump supporters. Instead of attacking me, why dont you provide a good argument as to why teachers with Guns is more effective than cops with guns? Since thats the stance the politicians your state chose. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's easier to regulate guns, or rather, the gun that's the problem (AR-15.) Can't exactly create an "assault rifle lab" in a burned out hovel in rural bumfuck. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other side of the coin (and this is where the NRA is gonna come down on me), what the heck is so wrong with license/registration/serial numbers on firearms? I mean we have those for motor vehicles and no one seems to mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You cause an accident, your insurance has to pay for damages. You fire a gun negligently that causes injury or death, your insurance pays for damages. And just like car insurance, your rates go up with each claim paid. And just like car insurance, you get caught without your gun liability insurance, you're held accountable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
