Hahaha. The fact that she wants to see her lawyer and is complaining about not getting to see her lawyer is the reason that I suggest she is going to sue. I'm sorry that you were not reading the same story as me? And the fact that you believe removing people's basic constitutional and humanitarian rights because…

Um, yeah, have you read about her conditions? She's in a quarantine tent at the hospital. She does not have access to a toiler or a shower. Although doctors visit her through the "walls" of the tent (where it's safe), the hospital has refused to allow her family or lawyer to do the same. She has no tv and no books…

Well, the problem here is about her treatment. And I don't mean people being rude to her. I read the CNN article about her situation and she is in a quarantine "tent" that does not have a toilet or a shower. She also does not have a tv or access to books (the hospital won't give her any). The hospital won't let…

They acted according to the standards of professional conduct? Really? Because the minute that someone requests that their lawyer be present, they are to cease talking to her without her lawyer present. It's a pretty simple concept. Someone asks for a lawyer- you get them a lawyer and stop asking them questions…

Um, yeah, that's actually not that unusual in rural schools. Not saying that the issue doesn't deserve attention, but it's not really as sensational as this article makes it out to be. Anybody from a rural state has probably seen senior photos which includes avid hunters and/or people who do shooting competitions…

Even if there's a consent element, courts have widely rejected voluntary intoxication as a defense.

Exactly. My guess is that out of the women who are actually drugged, only a small percentage are raped because the others have friends or caring strangers who intervene. It's the poor woman without either of these that ends up getting raped....all by accident I'm sure.

Yeah, the biggest flaw here is that she doesn't take into account all the women who are drugged, but are not raped. I, for example, was drugged and was saved by a lovely group of men who just happened to see it. My friend was drugged, but we saw her acting weird and ended up taking her to the hospital. My guess is…

I don't understand why you think it matters whether she knew that Duncan had died. She knew that she was taking care of a patient with Ebola. Whether that patient died has no relevancy to whether she suspected that she had Ebola. I think that you standing up for her is admirable, but I just don't agree with you. I…

Well, you are talking about two different countries. I doubt ethnicity had as much to do with it as the different protocols that different countries enact. It sounds like Spain may not have actually had any protocol in place, and they just went with fear as a motivator. In the United States, my guess is that there…

I would bet that either she or the people protesting the euthanization would have gladly paid for the tests. There is simply no reason here why the dog had to be put down other than ignorance, fear, and incompetence.

Every time I read about her morning sickness, it reaffirms my decision to not have kids (not that it's my only reason obviously). I realize that she is an extreme case and actually has a disorder, but if a princess can't find a good solution for morning sickness then I have no chance.

Yep. Or the firms in NYC that offer free car services to take you home if you're at the office after 10 p.m. or free dinner if you're at the office after 7, etc.

Honestly, that's the only thing I thought when I saw the headline. I wasn't sure what was so great about companies encouraging women to put their careers first and put having kids on the backburner. I personally don't want kids, but the idea still offends me because it's the corporation encouraging a specific choice…

Sorry, I don't agree. I will give you that she may have had no way of knowing when she went to Ohio. But once she got there, she started feeling ill according to the reports and had a small fever. She still choose to go shopping for her wedding. The fact that she even called the CDC hotline means she suspected…

I agree 100%. I have no sympathy for the nurse.

So is everyone still on the "don't blame the nurse" kick? Cause I'm sorry, but this is crap. She knew that she was sick. She is a trained medical working who just spent time taking care of an Ebola victim. And she still chose to be selfish and travel and shop because, oh my god, her wedding was coming up. The CDC…

I'm not absolving the CDC or the hospital of taking most of the blame. But she is medically trained and she did have a fever. She knew something was wrong or she would not have even called the CDC in the first place. I'm not willing to completely take the blame off of her when it's pretty clear that she suspected…

Yeah, Grisham is a lawyer. He knows this sort of "I accidentally stumbled into a crime" excuse is bullshit.

I'll just agree with what everyone else has said. I've seen judges grant extensions to men who want to attend little league championship games. No joke. In addition, the standard used to grant extensions is usually a "good cause" standard. I don't think there's any argument that having a child is not good cause. …
