I was kind of like, well damn that sounds really messed up, until:

"Savicki has nine children from several men, is unemployed and relies on public assistance for two of the four children who live with her."

Yeah, STFU, I really do not care.

Pretty much this.

They were about 10 years too late with that sterilization it sounds like.

Whatever it takes.

FTFA:
A 35-year-old mother of nine is suing a Springfield hospital, three doctors and two nurses, claiming they permanently sterilized her against her will, violating her reproductive rights, according to a lawsuit filed in Superior Court.

Tessa Savicki, who has nine children aged 3 to 21, claims doctors were supposed to implant an intrauterine device, which is a type of reversible birth control, after she delivered a son, Manuel Flores, on Dec. 19, 2006, at Baystate Medical Center.

Someone sure got busy pretty early in life.

You know who else sterilized people against their will?

That's right, this guy:

good.

Somacandra: Let's assume for the moment that the story fairly represents the raw facts of the case. I wonder how some Farkers would feel if they had gone into the hospital expecting to get their dicks circumicised but woke up afterwards instead with their balls cut off. Would they have no right to complain just because they might be poor and on disability? Generally you want doctors to perform authorized procedures, not ones you didn't sign up for. That's kinda the whole basis of doctor/patient relationships in modern health care.



Your analogy is incorrect. A tubal ligation in a woman is the equivalent of a vasectomy in a man. Removal of the testicles would severely fark up the body's hormonal balance, and could even result in the loss of sexual function and desire altogether. Again, tubal ligation is like a vasectomy...Everything's still there, and works, except no babies will fall out.

This woman is legally right. Her reproductive rights were violated, and she's probably going to win. Morally, however, she is a piece of dogshiat, and I'm only sorry that the doctors didn't get to her much sooner.

Horribly false analogy. For one thing, removing balls would be permanent disfigurement. She had already opted for sterilization and got a bit more than she bargained for. This is more attune to a rapist being forcibly chemically castrated.

Somacandra: log_jammin: I'd do her

Of course you would, log_jammin. You'd show up and be all "My manager says there is something wrong with eine kable...."

Pretty sure the line is "deine (your) kable", not "eine (one) kable".

/Another nit masterfully picked!

And yeah, what was done to this poor woman is both right and wrong. Why didn't she voluntarily have it done? And who thought it was their place to do it? Clown car patient's rights welfare queen nazi state blah blah bla etaoin qwerty loren ipsum derpy derpy doo.

Well, if she wins the lawsuit, I'm sure she'll be able to support her kids off welfare, at least for a few years.

And anybody who says that its a good thing is pretty much an asshole. If the hospital farked up this big, then she is owed and owed bigtime.

I'd consider hitting it.

This...13 and pregnant...nice...

Sh*t, Farkers, sieg heil much? Totally reprehensible for these doctors to sterilize someone against their will. Period.

TFA: "...violating her reproductive rights..."

Um, wha? Since when does one have a freaking reproductive right? From the sound of it she got what was best for the doctors and taxpayers both...

Hmmm....I wonder if that could actually be implemented. If you receive aid from the state to support yourself and children you must either prove you are on birth control or get some type of procedure done to preventing you from having more kids. The state will help support disadvantaged families, but not baby factories who just want to be permanent wards of the state.

If true it's totally reprehensible, but this story stinks to high heaven.

1lastcall: Sh*t, Farkers, sieg heil much? Totally reprehensible for these doctors to sterilize someone against their will. Period.

It was an accident.

I'm not saying what was done is right (it wasn't, at least legally) but it's a sick, sad world we live in in which reproduction is considered a right rather than a responsibility.

She had her first child at 13 and dropped out of high school in the ninth grade...

"It's not like I'm jumping from guy to guy to guy to get pregnant," she said.

I bet her kids grow up to be a pack of winners.

"That's my choice. This is my body."


Yea but it's our money you DUMB coont. Not to mention the crappy living conditions I'm sure you are bringing up the kids in. Stupid biatch.

And also, whoever keeps banging this chick, shame on you! Stop drinking.

Where are you coming up with that theory???

Nimnom: She had already opted for sterilization

Uh, no. She had chosen an IUD, a totally reversible implanted birth control device.

Iczer: TFA: "...violating her reproductive rights..."

9th amendment.

My first thought was that she fulfilled her right to reproduce a long, long time ago.

Ender's: Somacandra: Ender's: That's just ridiculous. Who goes in for a circumcision? I mean really?



Just in case.... (new window)

Ok, except for THOSE guys, I mean, who goes in for a circumcision? Really?

People who didn't get circumcised as a baby? There are studies that show some potential health benefits of being circumcised. Uncircumcised adults may decide to do it. Like STD risks.

I believe the most frequent surgery a urologist does is adult circumcision.

No Hero tag?

And yet that's what continues to occur. After the first three, it should be pretty damn obvious you are as fertile as bunny and you might want to ensure that birth control is on both sides because apparently a guy can look at you cross-eyed and you will get pregnant.
