The same day, less than a mile away from my school an idiot with a small truck crashed his vehicle onto ours, if any car crashed like this and my father was using the bike support nothing serious would have happened, but if that truck specifically did, the suppor would go through the driver's skull. So, my father saved him from his own mistake, but almost beat him to death, when I noticed my father was almost jumping at that man I grabbed his arm and cried, and he got even more pissed with the guy because I was crying but he stayed with me.

I should've went to the VA hospital while I was in to get any issues on record before leaving the Navy. What's tricky about some chronic pain is that it can take a while to present itself in its full form, so I had no idea the small issues I had then would grow into the issues I have now

      Have you looked into having the nerve severed? It's a last ditch solution. But it's easier to get adjusted to not having any feeling at all in that area, than constant pain.
      In my case my injury cut nerves that never healed right. So I'm numb on part of chest, neck/shoulder and parts of my hand.
      But it's so much better than constant horrible pain.

    Thanks for doing the syphilis story : Every generation of American citizens should know that happened . I know of a young man who died of syphilis in the last decade : He had every symptom of an untreated schizophrenic and kept getting locked up in the mental hospital - He was non-compliant . He told them the meds made him feel terrible and didn’t help . It wasn’t until months before his death at 27 , they realized he had syphilis and it was too late to treat him. Apparently, there are today pockets of syphilis outbreaks . I can’t imagine how many men contracted the disease after sleeping with him. As his mental health declined he became more and more sexually solicitous. Why it took so long for the hospitals to think to test for syphilis ? We’ll never know . Something else the citizenry should be aware of . Thanks for doing consistently great programs ! 🌸

      So just like the leopards in Hawaii , there were places where people with incurable disease could live in peace.
      The original 1930 syphilis study was only for one year, to track it's spread rate. But no one believed how fast it spread, so they replaced the Doctors, and did it again and again.

    That medical study experiment is one of the reasons why medical students take bioethics to learn that medical staff need to inform the patient with clear instructions in what the experiment is for and the risks for participating. However, not all medical schools require bioethics to be a prerequisite. It is an important class to take because so many medical doctors don't have that mindset for the patient, they like to experiment and having a patient to experiment on is their passion but not for the patient's wellbeing

    That second story is what makes me angry about most of the government secret programs. The term "I am from the government, trust me" then makes me so angry.

    That last one was super scary. A whole gang of serial killers out randomly catching people and torturing them. The sad thing is that like Mark, you would always believe they just wanted money or a ransom. So at gunpoint you would comply. In reality that guy should have ran and took the chance of being gunned down. What a horrible situation

      +Ben Scoles,
      Yeah, I have watched kidnapping-related videos recently and one message I have taken away from them is firstly to make your peace with God and then to FIGHT. DO NOT let the attempted abductor(s) take you away as they will probably kill you, possibly in a far worse way than if they kill you immediately for fighting back.
      Oh, also, don't trust strangers in third-world countries. If someone asks you for help, run the other way.

      Also the logic of the ring leader..... "We need to do these rituals so that we remain invincible" and then next minute "quick shoot and kill me the police are coming"
      He didn't belive any of that ritualistic bullshit he was just a sick fucker who wanted to torture people and thought if he made up some story about being invincible it'd be easy to get his cronies to help him
