The charge should be attempted murder.

Her Mother should beat the crap out of her daughter once she is out of the hospital for being there in the first place. Thee is a underlying cause for being "accident prone" - it's putting yourself in that situation where "accidents" are more prevalent.

“No” means no, in a bed or on a bridge.

K, tnx - she wasn’t set and was pushed before she got her nerve up, which she didn’t so I guess before she’d tried to get back she was pushed. Good thing she didn’t get a broken back and be paralyzed.

Do you not know what a Moderator is? On FR, it is a person appointed by the site owner to enforce rules.

I crashed on my dirt bike 3 weeks ago. 5 broken ribs, collapsed lung and a lacerated liver. I feel her pain, literally!

It’s a legitimate question. Who, exactly, made this admin moderator the boss?

Also, why can’t this moderator differentiate between legitimate news and chat? Some serious news stories have been pushed out of news by idiotic moderator moves.

If two people agree to have sex, and one clearly withdraws consent, but the act is nevertheless forcibly completed by the other, is it not then rape? If someone agrees to purchase a good, and then decides not to, but the other forcibly takes the money and hands over the good, it is not then robbery? (Noting that in the latter analogy there are “no returns”, as in the case of being pushed off a bridge, or for that matter having a sex act completed against one’s will.)

They could also edit and/or move/correct the thread selection.

It takes a lot of time to post a thread - copyright checking, cutting and pasting, selecting the right category etc, etc. Not surprising that many FReepers only post comments - not articles.

Please make it a clever opus, or at least dramatic. The inept ones are disappointing.
