Health care crisis…could this death have been avoided?

Question by Ma Joad: Health care crisis…could this death have been avoided?

“The 18-year-old who was allegedly high on Oxycontin and Xanax when she drove a passenger van into a Hempstead, Long Island home, fatally striking the home’s owner, was hysterical when taken out of the police station yesterday. Kayla Gerdes screamed to reporters, “No, I didn’t [purposely aim for her.] Listen, stop — listen, it was an accident!

Gerdes’s lawyer said that the teen was released early from a 28-day drug rehabilitation program, because her mother’s insurance would only cover seven days.”

Obviously, if this girl were still in rehab, this death would not have happened. Thoughts?

And if the moron hadn’t been a drug addict she wouldn’t have needed it.

Nobody is to blame but the worthless druggie.

Françoise demonstrates the difference between liberals and decent people… “It’s OK to for this moron to kill some innocent homeowner, because it’s not her fault she decided to get high and drive.” It’s kind of telling that the only person you care to defend is the person who killed, not the person who died. Speaks volumes about liberalism.
