I made love, not war, in those days.
It was great for picking up teenage girls. Especially if I gave them a lick of my nobbly bobbly.

While there is a market for shit, there will be assholes to supply it.

Rationalia relies on voluntary donations. There is no obligation of course, but if you value this place and want to see it continue please consider making a small donation towards the forum's running costs.

An article from ABC news:
http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-09-06/p ... ob/8877154
I hadn't heard before the bit where he told the nurse he would retaliate against the hospital in terms of the types of patients he delivered as part of his job with a private ambulance company (from which he has now been fired)
His arsehole credentials are increasing...
Nurse, where the fuck's my cardigan?
And my gin!

Mr Payne was put on paid leave by Salt Lake City police after the video emerged.
Hmm.

Yes.
A sop to the police union, no doubt...

Paid leave eh? How upsetting.
It sounds like the private enterprise ambulance men are well aware of their position of power, in the competitive health market. Bring us the big money patients, and send the welfare ones elsewhere, and we pay you a nice little bonus in your back pocket
Meanwhile, patients think that the ambulance men are only concerned about their health.
