1. When a doctor says A and a parent says B, I tend to go with what the doctor says. Usually the doctors are right. After reviewing Alfie's case, I believe that the boy is already brain dead and will never recover. Further treatment is a waste of resources.
2. If the doctor says it's hopeless, the parents have a right to seek a second opinion. But Italian doctors who have observed Alfie agree with the UK doctors.
3. Courts sometimes have to rule on what's in the best interests of the child. If the doctor says the child needs antibiotics and the parents say the child needs holistic organic regression therapy, the court should probably rule in favor of the doctor. But it's in the best interest of a child to live, not just receive palliative care.
4. If a patient is brain dead, not even palliative care serves any purpose. The only reason I can think of for a British court to insist that Alfie finish dying in a UK hospital is to uphold the authority of the doctors over the parents.
5. But this isn't just about socialized medicine vs private medicine. People needs to understand that life starts and stops with the brain. It's the only organ in the body that can never be replaced or transplanted. In the Baby K case, a hospital was required to keep an anencephalic infant on life support for 2 years because the mother would not accept that the baby was born brain dead.
6. Hospitals should not be required to eat the cost of keeping brain dead patients alive. Neither should insurance companies or the NHS for that matter. If Alfie's Army wanted to raise money for this hopeless case, they should have been allowed to do so.

BUILD ALL THE WALLS!
We
must secure our borders. Especially our southern border. This isn’t
just about people sneaking across the river, bringing in drugs and
stealing our jobs. This is about preserving our language, our
culture, and our way of life.
You
liberals mock me, but take one trip to Clarksville and listen to how
people talk. Listen to them use words like “y’all” and “ain’t”.
Listen to them say “dinner” when they mean “lunch” and
“supper” when they mean “dinner”. Immigration from Kentucky
has corrupted our values. And Indiana is forced to accept these
migrants by the federal government.
A
sovereign nation needs secure borders to exist. This is a basic fact.
Since the United States has never had secure borders, this so-called
country is in fact still a collection of British colonies. “American
independence” is the greatest lie ever told. Are we supposed to
believe that a handful of farmers defeated the most powerful army in
the world? If we’re so free, why do we still speak the same
language as the Queen? Open your eyes to the House of Windsor’s
lies.
Indiana
can become the first sovereign republic in North America by building
walls along all four borders. We must secure our borders against
Ohio, a state where people drive like reincarnated kamikazes. We must
protect ourselves against Michigan, two peninsulas filled with fanged
sewer rats known as Wolverines. We must seal ourselves off from
Illinois, the real home of Barack Obama. And don't even get me
started on Kentucky, where the horses are better at breeding than the
people.
Once
the wall is built, we won’t have to turn back our clocks anymore.
