Ironic Deaths

Recommended Posts

My friend is, however, easily-led, relatively poorly educated and open to almost any suggestive narrative,

Has he got a sister?

Note that this story was brought by De Telegraaf, a Dutch rag that is about as reliable as The Sun.

Jimmy Dale Bland, 49, is due to be executed in Oklahoma on Tuesday. Mr Bland is suffering from lung cancer which has spread to his adrenal glands and his spinal column, he is not expected to live more than a few months anyway.

 

Oklahoma Attorney General Seth Branham is not exactly charitable in his appraisal of the situation. :lol:

 

""He claims that because he's got cancer, that's a reason to let him go ahead and live a year or so and die on his own terms. If that's what he wanted, he shouldn't have shot Windle Rains in the back of the head,"

Heard an unnerving interview with a guy from Dignitas - that Swiss organisation that arrange suicides for terminal and suffering people - this morning. The unnerving bit being that they openly discussed the way they help people suffering terribly with mental illness. I've no idea how sincere they are or how bad the suffering of the mentally ill cases but: it is - of course - possible that we have closet Shipmans on one side helping the feckless and suicidal on the other.

 

Dignitas, Wiki page. Not that I'm suggesting anyone take it up. I mean, it's £3000 a pop with them. Just come to West Cumbria, order a Campari and Soda, eyeball the biggest guy in the bar, say 'What's your f****n' problem?' and you'll never need to worry again.

They executed him over 2 weeks ago DDT. They did him a favour, it would have been more unpleasant dying slowly from lung cancer.

 

Whoops. No one had informed me it was already July. :lol:

Morgue mixups

 

I confess, I couldn't help but laugh at the last two lines...

 

Meanwhile, there was a similar incident in another town in Buenos Aires province when a baby girl was born prematurely.

 

Doctors tried to revive her, but she was declared dead shortly afterwards and the body taken to the morgue.

 

But several hours later, she was found crying.

 

The mother was called and declared her daughter to be a miracle.

 

Unfortunately, she died three days later.

News from Vienna - A cardiologist has collapsed and died of heart failure , it's a shame that none of the other 25000 heart specialists present at the International Cardiology Seminar were able to save her.

It says she was reanimated. Didn't that happen to Micky Mouse?

Perhaps not much more ironic than a professional Russian roulette player dying of a gunshot wound to the head, but anyhow...

Snake man's charmed life comes to an end.

National Police road safety manager (ex road safety manager that is, still a copper until yesterday) killed in crash.

 

Is cycling on public roads in Britain as dangerous as it is here?
