Audio: Cindy Sheehan says she planted her uterus in Crawford; Update: Illegal?
A colorful metaphor, perhaps?
Im afraid not.
Update: The person who recorded it says it comes from a book signing in Palo Alto. Hes working on finding out the exact date. Also, its been slightly edited.
Over the summer I had a hysterectomy, and um, I got my parts back. I thought I could just [inaudible] on eBay, you know, [inaudible] Cindy Sheehans uterus. And so I planted it in the garden where the bush, its a pretty bush Its so funny cause me and my children, well always be a part of, of Crawford, Texas. Long after people forgot the horror of the Bush regime, long after, you know, were forgotten. Well always, our DNA will always be in the land
Update: Commenter RLW surfed around in the Texas statute books and found this:
(A) Human materials removed during surgery, labor and delivery, autopsy, embalming, or biopsy shall be subjected to one of the following methods of treatment and disposal:
(ii) tissues or fetuses:
(III) interment;
We go to the definitions:
(31) IntermentThe disposition of pathological waste by cremation, entombment, burial, or placement in a niche
(9) BurialThe act of depositing a pathological waste in a grave, a crypt, vault, or tomb, or at sea
(27) GraveA space of ground in a burial park that is used, or intended to be used for the permanent interment in the ground of pathological waste
(10) Burial parkA tract of land that is used or intended to be used for the interment of pathological waste in graves.
I don't know, but I'm betting there's a FReeper who does. I wonder if Ms. Sheehan even has two concerned relatives anymore. They might have become so angered by her Sheehanigans that they've written her off as a lost cause.
