"I guess you must have to find a hunger strike a respect-worthy form of protest to find this deeply upsetting.

THANK YOU! This is exactly what I am talking about!

That's wonderful. I'm serious, it is good that the figures are low. I hope the figures for all other types are low too. I just take this stuff seriously, because having been a pastry chef in restaurants, and observing the crap that goes down in the culinary side of the kitchen, I am wary of food in restaurants. The…

I wasn't fear mongering or shaming pregnant women. I even said I've never been pregnant, and the whole convo started with me asking a woman above about what foods you can't eat if you are preggers, because as I've said I've never been pregnant, and am not an expert. If I was assuming things about you, (as apparently I…

My reaction was pretty extreme because of the constant flow of ignorance related to this subject that I hear coming my way.

Fair enough!

I've certainly seen lox mishandled (kept inside it's vacuum packaging but brought to room temperature), and almost served to people before I and another person told them what a bad idea that was.

Yes, but by refusing to look at the aspect of it that is...political/emotional (that it is done to struggling people against their will), you are looking past a few factors (how tense they are, that they might be trying to spit it out, that they might have their jaw held open by a guard, that they are strapped down in…

Gotcha. Yeah, I'm a baker, so I get pregnant women sometimes who come in and can't eat certain things. I think that's smart. Better safe than sorry. There's so many ways to get food poisoning. I know of pregnant women who wouldn't give up their lox and cream cheese on their bagels...that just seems irresponsible, but…

I'm not trying to be a jerk, but as a, I dunno, fellow food handler, I would hope they would 'voluntarily recall the cheese after testing revealed it was possibly contaminated'. Doing that doesn't make them good people. They are in so much legal trouble already probably with all this, and if they didn't do it, not…

Why soft serve? Does that go for all dairy products, like just normal milk and cream? or eggs?

Yeah, but there are a million ways to research how an NG tube works without getting onto a discussion site if you don't want discussion. WHY are you wasting your time?

Just like all the shit we've done to the prisoners now is having consequences...aka we have the choice of either letting prisoners die, or forcefeeding them which results in extremely bad publicity (especially when we continue doing it during Ramadan, a weeklong fasting holiday)...

I really, really, really want to see your force-feeding video. C'MON! PLEASE?

Why? He is trying to help people who are innocent. 86 of the 166 people at Guantanamo are already cleared for release. So you could say that about anybody sticking up for anybody who is innocent and being treated badly.

Hmmm, too bad it falls within the legal definition of torture according to the UN (degrading and inhumane) especially as it is done without consent, unlike your patients, and therefore you are wrong.

Please go tell this to that other thread where the girl asks 'purely from a technical standpoint, doesn't this procedure happen all the time, blah blah blah,' and then later on compares it to how she gives deep throat BJ's and says they aren't so bad. For reals, I mean, right?

So... if they started giving the prisoners big dicks down their throats, would you be commenting that 'purely from a technical standpoint' that's not so bad..is kinda what you are saying?

"Many had been "ratted on" by multiple CIA informants so the only logical thing to do is detain and question them if they pose a possible threat to American lives. Now I'm not saying I agree with the way the government has gone about that, but the fact remains. There are guilty people in Guantanamo that are on hunger…

Best comment ever.
