cybercoma Posted February 13, 2015 Report Posted February 13, 2015 He's not a libertarian. It's because the child is native. We must respect brown people's rights to do whatever they want at all times.Except I would argue the same thing if it were a white child who underwent chemo and also didn't want to continue. But I guess when you're a demonstrated racist everything looks like racism to you. Quote

cybercoma Posted February 13, 2015 Report Posted February 13, 2015 It is immoral to pretend that this child decided for herself without any outside influence and completely understood that she could suffer short term and live a long life, or allow herself to die.Does anyone decide anything without outside influence? Of course the child is influenced by her parents, just as you, I, and everyone else are influenced by our families, communities, and social groups. Quote

I think that has an even greater effect.

But I guess when you're a demonstrated racist everything looks like racism to you. More like when you're a mindless PC storm trooper everything looks like racism to you. If I were racist I wouldn't give a damn about what happened to the kid. Kinda like, uhm, you.

Just like all the other racist garbage that has been legislated over generations. They weren't really racist because if they were, the legislators wouldn't give a damn about those people. Quote

Only in your bizarro world where colour blindness is racism, is care for human life, no matter the race, also racism. Cultural oversensitivity and belief in magic killed this girl. You're just driving the getaway car, along with far too many other people. Quote

This is crazy talk, We don't want a child parents denying them care that could have saved them, Parents don't own their children, but for that people are racists? How broken are your ideals exactly? I honestly feel bad for how limited you are. Quote

The state decided for kids in residential schools what medical experiments they would be a part of too. Now you want the state overruling both the child and parent who attempted chemo and decided they didn't want to go through with it. Your position comes from a long history of racist attitudes towards first nations. Don't worry though. You're in good company on this forum with all the other racist garbage in here. Quote

msj Posted February 15, 2015 Report Posted February 15, 2015 (edited) You're in good company on this forum with all the other racist garbage in here.Nice ad hominem there. If we were racist then we would not be concerned about the health of this girl in the first place. We do care and we have come a long way from the days of forcing an entire culture and religion on another people. Which is not the same thing as ensuring life saving medical treatment on a person. A rational person should be able to see that and perhaps still disagree without the shameful name calling.

Big Guy Posted April 25, 2015 Report Posted April 25, 2015 The First Nations girl who had refused chemo during a remission has got it again. She has started treatments again.
