    This should become lively discussion now

    If the same situation comes up again..they still gotta give dude the heart. Doctors shouldn't get to arbitrarily decide who lives and dies.

    Sigh.

    They aren't an abundance of human organs laying around for people to ? up. I'm totally in favor of picking and choosing who gets what in that regard.

    Besides dude was fighting to be out on THE LIST, getting on the list is different from actually receiving the ? , there are still others ahead of you, who are just as of not more deserving.

    There are tremendous opportunity costs attached to these ? lists and surgeries, people die just waiting for one and this ? ? not only shamed the hospital into putting him on the list but managed to actually survive long enough to get the heart AND survived the surgery AND his body accepted the transplant. This was the luckiest ? I've ever seen and equally the most infuriating story I've ever read.

    Picking and choosing opens the door for all kinds of fuckery...

    So ?

    There aren't many organs to go around, especially hearts.

    The Doctors look at his records and predicted this would happen.

    I think everyone deserves life, but i hate to say this was a waste.still doesn’t mean that I think the hospitals should start profiling people in determining who should live and who shouldn’t

    Wow I know they won't do procedures if the patient is an active drug addict, but thats messed up. My teacher was talking about some drug addict patient that need surgery but the hospital didn't do the surgery because she was still on drugs and it would be a waste of time. Him being 'in trouble with the law' is bull though. If Woody Allen or Roman Polanski needed a heart they wouldn't hesitate even though their pedophiles. the public just thinks blacks will never be productive but their forever giving whites a 2nd, 3rd & fourth chances. If Justin Bieber needed a heart we wouldn't be having this convo.

    Edit- Read this article in this thread while I had the article that he died open in another tab, I didn't know it was the same guy..crazy.

    the problem with this is that we gonna act like its his fault when they continue to discriminate... as if white kids who get organs are angels who never get into trouble... is this truly the case?

    That aint really the point. This is SUCH a bad look for us, because black people were going hard for this kid to get treated fairly and now we look stupid as hell. It's like you recommending someone to get hired, and you stick your neck out for him, and he end up doing some crazy illegal ? . You end up looking crazy and suspect for vouching for that person. Black people gotta learn to stop defending everybody. Everybody aint meant to be defended. You think other groups are going around standing up for the worst pieces of ? in their race? No. So why do we? I don't get it. White people throw them dumb poor hick rednecks under the bus without a second consideration. We need to start doing the same to dumb ignorant hood nikkas.

    I have no sympathy for this ? ..

    However this could open a can of worms...

    there are probably tons of people who get these second chances who ? up in a less public way... and we never know..

    but when its our own people it matters most.. cause ultimately it can affect us... we dont have that luxury of ? up and not having it stick.. to not only the individual.. but the rest of us..

    Moral of he story dont be a ? up period

    It isn't the hospital, there's a board that does all this deciding and list checking

    I believe the kid crashed the car and died after almost killing a pedestrian and shooting someone in their house he was trying to rob

    This only makes 'us' look bad because they take every isolated incident and use it to justify what they were going to do anyway.
    Yall fall for it every time too.
