Heard about EpiPen CEO?

[Joods]

Drippy, you are the lowest form of human life I have ever seen. Heartless, inconsiderate, lacking empathy, miserable old dried up bag of unicorn farts.

Go to hell you piece of shit.

If a proud parent allows his kid to die because they are too proud/stupid to learn how to use a syringe then they need to get the chair.

Outstanding. Yes, pride goes before the fall, and the parents deserve every bit of sorrow they receive, not to mention a state-sponsored, Drich-approved draconian sentence to boot!

But let's go further. As America's One True Christian, I'm sure you'll have no problem executing those Christian poseurs who allow their children to die because they were dumb enough to believe in God's loving care and the efficacy of prayer, rather than the demonstrated efficacy of competent medical care. Maybe you, as God's approved spokesman, could tape a PSA, calling them douche bags while advocating their executions. Or would that offend your sensitive constitutional scruples too much?

Asshole.

Yeah, idiotic.  Like a cap isn't obvious to everyone, much less someone versed in engineering, which according to law should invalidate the patent.

Which of course they won't because the overwhelming number of patent cases are cherry picked into a particular Texas court that is very friendly to the patent holders.

Fucking system is rotten all around.  Excuse the French.

This kind of shit really is what makes me think libertarians are a bit naive. If with governments they pull shit like this, one expect them to self regulate? Never underestimate the power of human greed.

Less a case of naivete and more of "we don't give two shits about the rest of ye. Now, fuck off and die, looters." Where the soupcon of naivete comes in is the automatic assumption that as a good libertariain you'll automatically be on top.

[Pat Mustard]

You guys do like to throw punches at eachother. Must be an old fart thing.

Yeah. That old fart.

Hey at least he's not a neo-Nazi fucknut. Unlike a certain person you see every morning.

[Faith No More]

No, "your" a douchebag.

As someone who was once married to a diabetic, I do think everyone should learn how to give an injection.

That being said, not everyone does, or would even know the correct dose to load up into a regular syringe.

If you have a life threatening allergy, and you keep you medicine and needle with you at all times, then you pass out from said allergy and the only person around happens to be the 17 year old next door neighbor, or some elderly lady passing by with her dog ( and if they do nothing but call an ambulance, you will die before they can reach you), do you want them to have to attempt to correctly load the syringe and accurately inject you?  Or just have a device you stab into a thigh and it does it correctly for you?

This device saves lives AS MUCH AS THE DRUG ITSELF.  That is why it is such a big deal.

And fu too, you selfish little man.

:Roflol:

And what if said 17year old or elderly lady does know how to dial in the correct dose in your epi pen? They like you (if the guy does not have his pen/syringe marked) calls 911 and they step you the caller through the process of administering the shot. The ONLY difference is dialing a dose rather than extracting with a plunger.

I believe you're thinking of insulin pens, Drich. They do hold multiple doses of insulin, and have a dialing mechanism that allows the proper dose to be administered. Epi Pen auto-injectors contain a single dose; there is no measuring or dialing. 

"It's as simple as 1-2."

CEO's testimony before congress. Sounds like some nice dancing.
