Average tourniquet time for these patients was about 77 minutes. After multivariable analysis, the non-tourniquet group had almost six times greater odds of death than the group of patients who received a tourniquet (adjusted odds ratio: 5.86).
“This is the first time that we were actually able to prove the survival benefit of using the tourniquet in the civilian population,” said lead study author Pedro Teixeira, MD, FACS, of the University of Texas at Austin, Dell Medical School.

Civilian tourniquet use associated with six-fold reduction in mortality

This is great. A simple and inexpensive device that you can carry will give somebody injured (even you) a chance of living six times greater than not having a tourniquet.  I want you to pay attention to the 77 minute time because it is important and an eye opener: An untreated mayor injury to an extremity main artery will kill your in as short a time as 4 to 5 minutes.  The wound that has killed and will kill bullfighters is a rupture of the femoral by a well place horn. Some bullfighters did not even make it to the first aid station inside the plaza, many barely managed to be placed inside the ambulance that took them to the hospital.

We are talking that a wound that can kill a human being under 10 minutes, can be successfully controlled and life extended long enough to take that person to a hospital for emergency life-saving surgery.

And again, I will send you over Recon Medical because they have great tourniquets and it is the one I have around me all the time. But you get a decent brand and carry, I don’t care which, just have it with you.

Of course not, are you kidding me?  He is allowed to lie (and the Herald knew this) because he has the right color and the right party. And they have no problem with his staff in general lying to voters and his close friend being racist and all of them being co-conspirators in his lies because, the Herald itself is also co-conspirator.

Besides, they ain’t crackers, only those white folks living between I-95 and I-24 and North of I-595 are crackers.

I Just saw this in Twitter:

Here is the letter on its own:

So this girl (I can call her woman) apparently an adult sees bad shit on TV and her first reaction is hopping on a plane to California and Daddy’s lap.  I can almost bet you she is into the Israel Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions movement at college and making kissy kissy with Palestinian fans.

So she sees somebody in a MAGA hat in the plane (by now the whole story is starting to smell like week old fish inside an abandoned tire), has some sort of nervous attack and decides to write a missive to the hat wearer expressing why He Bad Support Orange Man.

It is time that American Jews stop being Over Fodder.

“Never again” is the basis for the State of Israel. It does not mean we will wait for a greater power to protect us but that  violence against Israel and its people will be met with even more violence so the Holocaust will not be repeated.

Time to apply the same in Temples and Synagogues across the U.S.

The reason why asshole racist Robert Bowers chose Temple of Life is because it looked like a nice fat soft target filled with the people he hated. If that is what they call Victim Blaming, so be it. Any Temple, any synagogue that ignores the reality of centuries persecution and destruction targeted at Jewish gatherings is doing a disservice to its community.

Even the craziest of Anti Semites thinks twice at a well protected target that will shoot back and to kill. If you have any doubts, go have a vacation in Israel.

Again, if this letter and the writer are for real, the father and mother grew somebody whose last words will be “This can’t be happening to me!”

We feel empathy for victims, not unprepared whiners.

PS: I am sure J. Kb’s and similar parents are NOT preparing their kids for mass execution. Probably the kids will be able to set up interlocking fields of fire and set up booby traps before their Bar Mitzvah.

Senator Bill Nelson, currently locked in a tight reelection race with Florida Republican governor Rick Scott, appeared to compare the current political climate in the U.S. to that of pre-genocide Rwanda at a weekend campaign event.
“When a place gets so tribal that the two tribes won’t have anything to do with each other . . . that jealousy turns into hate,” the Florida Democrat said Sunday in a campaign appearance with California senator Kamala Harris at the Covenant Missionary Baptist Church in Florida City. “And we saw what happened to the Hutus and the Tutsis in Rwanda. It turned into a genocide. A million-people hacked to death within a few months. And we have got to watch what’s happening here.”

Bill Nelson Appears to Compare U.S. to Pre-Genocide Rwanda

Elections bring out the worst in demagoguery in politicians.  Here we have Senator Bill Nelson, Democrat from Florida warning that the divisiveness and hate spread by his party can result in a genocide which if nothing else is a well documented example on how Gun Control helps power-grabbing assholes o eliminate big swaths of the population.

Even the “clarification” does nothing to clear the air, basically “he said that but he did not mean that.”

Nelson campaign spokesman Dan McLaughlin denied that the senator was comparing the the two situations in a statement.
“He wasn’t likening the current political climate in America to what was happening right before the Rwandan genocide,” McLaughlin said. “Senator Nelson and his wife, Grace, have spoken about events in Rwanda for years, because of his wife’s personal relationships there and his own trip to the country. He uses Rwanda as an extreme example of what could happen when a nation becomes totally divided.

I swear I’ll be happy when the elections are over. Of course if results do not go their way, we are going to have at ;east another 2 months of shrieking.

Project Veritas strikes again. Racism is also prevalent with at least one of his staffers who loves to use the pejorative “Cracker.” All of them admit that Gillum is a bonafide Progressive and love the idea.

Once again, we cannot afford to have Socialism in Florida. Go vote for DeSantis.

I wonder how much Joe gets paid to come up with these doozies.?

Trump is “sending a message to white nationalists” by “tweeting about baseball or talking about his bad hair day.”

I am going out on a limb and say MSNBC does not do random drug tests to on-air personalities.

A woman is safe this morning after being robbed at gunpoint overnight by a man who had his face covered, according to officers with the Corpus Christi Police Department.
Just before 4 a.m., officers say a man walked into a business on the 4500 block of Kostoryz with a gun and robbed a young woman who was closing the store.
“We were told that it was an assault-type rifle,” Senior Officer Billy Gaines with the Corpus Christi Police Department said.
The man got away with a small amount of cash and some of the woman’s personal items, Gaines said. One other person was inside the business at the time and was also uninjured.

If there was something that would have made the robber change his mind, some sort of hint or indication.

I guess the Gun Free Zone signs are still not working in successfully stopping crime, are they?
