Personal Responsibilty
All right folks, I will dust my blog off for a discussion on personal responsibility. This comes from the recent news story about a woman named Jennifer Strange. She was a 28 year old mother of 3. Read about the story here and new information here. This is predictable, the family suing the radio station. My question is - where does the responsibility lie? The woman was the one most in "tune" with her body, if you are distended and have a terrible headache perhaps you should stop. Yes she did have these items, and more, seeing as water intoxication will cause swelling of the brain as systemic water enters cells withing the brain using osmosis. Now I guess I do agree with firing the radio jockeys (somewhat) but the lawsuit states that the radio station held the responsibility for her. THIS IS NOT TRUE... SHE HELD RESPONSIBILITY FOR HERSELF! Medical help is available, strong diuretics and electrolyte replacement in an ER would have saved her, but no.... She went home.... Ignorance.
I hate stupid people. They are the reason why laws state what we can and can't do... Because of the lower 50%.

I truely agree with you. Where does the resposibility lie? The way I look at it is, these contests they run, the drinking of alcohol they do, the pure and stupid ideas these "ADULTS" place themselves into, nobody is holding a gun to their head and forcing them to do the crazy stunt that they do, or drink so much that they cause a car wreck. Thses "ADULTS" need to take full resposibility for there own actions.
Yeah. I agree, too. I mean, I can see firing the disc jockeys--they really should've checked their information better. But the woman should've gotten medical help, too. I mean, distension is *not normal*. ~_- Sheesh.
Peace and love.
