Just something that occurred to me. We inevitably cause pain with certain things we do. We can try to mitigate it but we do “harm” at times with the ultimate goal of supporting them to wellness.
Cancer drugs kill healthy cells and cancer cells. We don’t stop using them. Some treatments side effects are horrible but the patient has to mitigate the side effects against the benefits once fully informed. So just saying do no harm on my part doesn’t relate the full range of my thoughts on the subject.
You’ve had procedures that were painful in recovery but the ultimate goal of a better functioning heart won out.

Without any deep thought, I've always equated the "do no harm" as meaning "don't make the end result worse". I've always accepted that medical care often carries a risk or more often uncertainty of things being worse until the treatment improves the situation. Either the doctor didn't explain his thoughts well, or they were't black and white enough for me, but I was surprised at how much he weighed the negatives of treatment with respect to the end result.

Interesting… we gone from “ defund the police “ to pass my budget so we can hire more police. Which one of these idiotic purposes would have stopped the shooting in Sac?

I like it when the Dems push more gun control with mid terms coming up .

If we are to repeal gun manufacturers' liability, then we should do the same for automakers and all other manufacturers ... that should go well for the economy. In fact, we shouldn't stop there; we should apply it to legislatures and courts making laws on their own, too - and presidential decrees. Imagine going after the biden administration on inflation and especially fuel costs. Maybe we could nab the Chinese for covid while we're at it. Imagine a world free of personal responsibility. Saying that all of us are on the hook for trillions of dollars of debt and holding those who made it happen should be very entertaining.

Even a young child is taught not to embarrass their parents while out in the public's eye.
Joe Biden hasn't grown enough as a person to know that one simple request from family.

Yeah, but enforcement of that policy has been tantamount to child abuse for many years. It's been a really long time since I've seen an unruly kid in a store swatted on the butt. And I think most of us knew that was just a preview of what was coming when we got home - lectures, loss of allowance, no TV, a good paddling, etc. Then there was the school thing. If you embarrassed your parents by being disciplined at school, you knew it wasn't over when you got home.

Mayor Pete -

Even if all of the oil we use in the U.S.A. were made in the U.S.A., the price of it is still subject to powers and dynamics outside of the U.S.A.," Buttigieg said.

"Which means that until we achieve a form of energy independence that is based on clean energy created here at home, American citizens will still be vulnerable to wild price hikes like we are seeing right now," he continued.

I was just about to post this but I wasn't sure what thread to place it in but I guess this one captures all his idiocy. Biden's way to address black on black crime is to blame the guns. He does this because it's empty rhetoric. It doesn't fix anything. Criminals don't care about gun laws. When they get to the bottom of this, we will more than likely find people who have a criminal history and because of local democrat policies they are running around free to terrorize the public.

Dandrae Martin is named as a “related suspect,” police said, and is being held without bail in the Sacramento County Main Jail on the weapons charge and a separate count of assault with a deadly weapon.


Martin also is being held on an outstanding warrant from the Riverside County Sheriff’s Office, jail records say.

Riverside Superior Court records show Dandrae Stephan Martin has a 2014 conviction for inflicting corporal injury on a spouse.

The reason that U.S. shale producers aren't already producing more is that they know that whenever their increased production is no longer politically convenient for the idiot-in-chief, he will pull the rug out from under them again. You can't make multiple year investments when you're dealing with an administration that is openly hostile to your very existence.

The Democrats are doubling down on rampant stupidity. Now they want to pass laws to halt dividend payments. If a company's management doesn't do what the federal government wants, then the federal government will just take over management of the company. What could possibly go wrong?

Stop running your business until the Gov says you are free to?

Key Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives demanded Exxon and peers Chevron Corp., Shell Plc and BP Plc immediately halt dividends and share buybacks until the war’s conclusion

Please help us…. Or we will fine you. This regime is something else.

President Joe Biden Democrats last week pleaded with the industry to reinvest profits in new wells to help plug the supply gap from shunned Russian crude. At the same time, [they] warned of punishing financial penalties for companies slow-walking projects involving federally owned oil prospects.

Could also be headlined "Key Democratic Lawmakers Didn't Buy Into Oil Stocks Early Enough" - had to edit my own post, I'm sure this will get bipartisan support....
