I've never said a word about anyone being weak.
You did and your projecting ideas in your silly head again about other people.
You do that a lot.
I received an email from one person here about your sickness.
That person left this forum because of you and your sick twisted mentality.
Best back off screwball ......

I don't see any difference between a photo of someone's missing leg and a written description saying something like "leg blown off".
If the written word doesn't paint that exact same picture into your head, you need to, I don't know, maybe brush up on reading comprehension, or something.
If you can stomach reading a news article about limbs being blown off, you should be OK with the photos too.

chaz, you post that as a person with childish concepts of people.
Perhaps you would benefit from spending time on a suicide line, or counseling people who suffer from PTSD.
I'm sure that seeing an actual picture of your child eviserated would affect you no differently than reading about it, but you are certainly not typical.

Braun Boy,
other than being a simple troll, you are an embarrassment to EMS providers.
Time to retire.
Inasmuch as that picture does not appear easily found on the web, you probably used your access to confidential EMS blogs. Using that info to post publically is particularly offensive.

Ease up you two.
Ken.. the picture is on yahoo news.
I would like to know who left because of Ken. ken is cantankerous at times, and opinionated, but I haven't seen him post anything worse then a whole lot of other people on this forum. But then I haven't been reading much of the political threads lately.
What a terrible event.

My condolences to everyone affected by this horrible tragedy.
So tell me Climb2ki, how are we going to stop such people? Id rather PREVENT than prosecute after the fact.
To this I must say, how many of your freedoms are you willing to forfeit to achieve such a mission statement??????
Edit wow.

Tradmanclimbs, so true. But...
Supertopo: the number one name in internet news and random emotional speculation.
Patrick: Number One? Yeah, right. Had to get your two bits in, didn't you. If you do not like the Taco Stand, then just leave. It is a good site, far better than many. You obviously feel burned from the Peru thread that you started. No hard feelings, but you come across as bitter, IMO. ;-)
Wow, Americans really ARE stupid.
Michelle, some of the posters are not 'Americans', some are born elsewhere, but just as stupid. Stupidity knows no boundaries.
Condolences to the injured and families of those killed and maimed in this horrible 'event'.

An estimated 50-80 people were killed in bombings in Iraq yesterday, also. The public is tired of hearing about that so the news doesn't pay much attention to it, so it's not important and Obama won't make a speech about it. I think the Taliban wedding story is an old one, but bombings happen regularly in these war zones.
For some reason the White House is avoiding using the word terrorism. Why? Is it because we have to determine the religion and nationality of the culprits first?

I would like to make a few comments, which I have had 1st hand experience with.
It was mentioned in an earlier post that there was no C4 detected.
There are other explosives, which are just as powerful as C4, which can be made by a novice, with little experience.
When viewing the photo that Werner posted, one may assume that the guy was in considerable pain, but if my own experience with bomb blast is typical, the whole area around the wound is rather numb for several hours.
I was injured severely, by separate bomb blast, and each time, I had NO feeling in the area for many hours afterwards.
I nearly lost my foot in Vietnam, and they told me I wouldn't run again.
A few years later, I was climbing routes on EL Cap.
With the right motivation, let us hope the injured will walk and run again.

other Patrick,
You sound a little bitter too dude (obviously). Peru thread? That was months ago. Sorry it has been weighing on your mind. No hard feelings, of course.

Those last few post were good ones thanks.
Very tragic and my heart goes out to all affected.
Werner, I can see one point of Ken's (not that you probably give a goshdarn) which is posting a very graphic image without a warning. A link may have been better... though a shocking is indeed what we all must and should feel (though that may of been your point, I don't know).
All that other stuff seems kind of minor considering the pain and suffering many are going through.
My $0.02
And, too, that it is easier for me to feel the outrage, frustration, sorrow, and compassion for ALL those that experience these horrific things no matter who they are or where they live or what they believe.
That is something everyone needs to get their heads wrapped around.
People do pretty f*#ked up shite to each other. Seems to me that tolerance and respect for others is even more important and is needed to balance it out.
cheers

"At Massachusetts General Hospital, Alasdair Conn, chief of emergency services,said: "This is something I've never seen in my 25 years here ... this amount of carnage in the civilian population. This is what we expect from war."
Didn't we already go to "war" over a exponentially larger amount of "carnage" on September 11, 2001? It appears from this statement that, in twelve years, some things have already been forgotten. It's going to happen again, and again, and again, and if you haven't already, you might start thinking like you're in a war zone and keep you're head on a swivel. As I said to a fellow shipmate/Corpsman of the relieving 3/25 Marines in March 2005, while lying on our faces on the dusty floor of the "internet room" after a VBIED explosion out at the main gate of FOB Hit, "Welcome to Iraq!"

I've got no problem with the image Werner posted.
Yes, that's what it looks like folks.
I haven't forgotten what happened on 9/11, but exactly what do you think we've been doing to people in Iraq and Afghanistan for over 10 years?
Or Yemen or Pakistan for that matter.
To think that they were all combatants and bad guys is just plain ignorant
That's why all of Fatty's "over the horizon" and "surgical" bullshit made me so crazy. As if there were only bad guys on the other side of the horizon.....
