Saying he wanted to send a message that such activity ''will not be tolerated in this society,'' an Oakland County Circuit Court judge Monday ordered an Oak Park man to prison for performing a kitchen table castration on a volunteer patient last summer.

Shermy,
AL-Jazeera and Baghdad Bob should take notes on your accurate and fact-based reporting, which cut to the heart (or other part) of the matter with this insightful post.

In fact, when the sum total of your posts is considered, many critics will find this contribution seminal. Do you know if Wang had any medical bent before this episode? He may have studied with the eminent Chinese surgeon, Dr. Wan Hung Lo. Work with Dr, Claude Sachs, of the VVI (Vienna Vasectomy Instute) is also a possibility.

Pardon double post. But apropos of this case, I somehow thought a pair was appropriate

They are both nuts. Well, at least before the castration.....

Make that a new Republican senator.

I think many Republican Senators have apparently already had that procedure.

Wang, an unemployed engineering student, told police that he performed the castration...

Figures the guy's name is Wang.

Victim's name: Long Wang Gon

Ambrose, a good peaceful loving religion morning to you. I thought the guy's name was No Hung Lo.

Considering the lack performance of some of the GOP's Senator's in helping GWB with his agenda (Judges, Tax Cuts), is it possible Mr. Wang was practicing in the DC area before he came to Michigan???

The DFP reports:   "...sentencing him to 14 months-to-four years in prison for practicing medicine [performing a kitchen table castration] without a license..."

Uh-oh, another example of an out of control statist government illegally invading the privacy and sanctity of the home and interfering with fundamental rights "retained by the people" and "initiating force" against peaceful citizens. In this case, the unalienable right of castration and practicing medicine without a license, agreed to between consenting adults, was trampled under the jackboot and iron fist of these socialist vampires.

Enough is enough. Only the Libertarian Party can lead us out of this darkness. Protect your right to live without balls. Vote Libertarian.

You forgot to say "statist."

The libertarian view is, a rancher doesn't need a license to castrate a young bull--why should anyone require special training and a license to castrate a man?

And if Senator Santorum is disregarded by the SCOTUS and they find a "right to sodomy" somewhere in the evil penumbras that allow infanticide, the LP view will hold. Be scared, be very scared.

Dr Wang has a brother named Chang who owns a restuarant. The specialty on the menu is a delicacy - "deep fried nuggets". Mr. Chang says that the recipe is a family secret. ;>)
