Yeah, there's this local woman whose 14-year-old son died of cardiac arrest while running and she just won't stop trying to persuade schools and public venues to buy AEDs.

I'm not familiar with that particular loon. Sounds like another attention hog trying to wring some meaning from a personal tragedy ... at public expense of course.

She even had the gall to persuade a local health care company to donate 38 of the things to high schools and had the temerity to appear on TV to talk about it!!!

Strongarmed some gullible health care company, eh? Well, there's always some sucker who will fall for the boo hoo chorus, I guess.

I mean, what business does she have trying to get folks to do that?

Exactly.

She should just get over that public grief and keep it to herself.

Hear, hear!

Actually when I say "persuaded," they saw her on TV and came to her. She stongarmed no one. Sorry you consider an attempt to save lives the boo-hoo chorus, or a private corporation -- particularly one involved in healthcare -- voluntarily deciding to be involved in saving lives being a sucker. I thought Freepers were in favor of the private sector, not the government, doing these things. Guess you're not in favor of anybody doing it.
