  • Israel 'stealing organs' from bodies in Gaza, alleges rights group
  • In what world would this make sense? People really need to think these things through.

    The NGO claimed it has documented Israeli forces confiscating dozens of dead bodies from the al-Shifa and Indonesian hospitals in northern Gaza, alongside others in the south.

    Medical professionals reportedly found vital organs, such as livers, kidneys and hearts, alongside cochleas and corneas, were missing, which the Euro-Med Monitor called "evidence" of potential organ theft.

    After death you have 4~ hours to harvest a heart. So they're claiming someone died in Gaza, they got the body to the morgue then Israel captured the hospital, took the bodies and fast choppered them to another medical center, to harvest a heart... all within 4 hours of death.

  • Keys, phone, naloxone: In downtown Ottawa, the antidote to opioid overdoses has become an item some people won’t leave home without
  • Ah yes and everyone who has stolen food is just evil and should be jailed because they didn’t want to starve?

    Ahh yes food and hard drugs are the same thing. Jesus give your head a shake. You don't need to do drugs.

    If youre stuck in the cycle of poverty knowing very well you aren’t making it out, why not do hard drugs? You’re never making it anywhere anyway.

  • Flurry of newspaper closures raise concern about future of local news
  • Yeah it's insane to me that these failing businesses due to lack of giving a shit will soon have their hand out for Government money and some are eager to prop them up.

    Maybe actually have local news, and maybe actually generate interesting stories rather than just printing the AP wire and calling it 'town name press'.

  • Anti-trans hate also fuelling school privatization sentiments
  • Lol, how much money do you think we should give the Public School system? Is the nearing on $400k per classroom not enough? Would it magically get better at $500k? We've done nothing but throw money at this problem with zero results.

  • Anti-trans hate also fuelling school privatization sentiments
  • I mean, one would argue that the money is for a child's education.. why do you care where it gets spent? We're currently in Ontario spending north of $12,500/per year per child and somehow that's underfunded. A class of 30 kids is getting $375,000/year. With that we hire 1 teacher and if we're lucky 2 EA's which would equal maybe $200k of that $375,000.. so I guess we just accept having $175,000/year in overhead per classroom.
