What a sad story, sickening how this patriot's body was misused.

Your title is weird in that it seems to blame LSU. But the article is pretty horrifying… and the spectators kind of remind me of the squid game spectators

Sounds like she did no research when she gave her husbands body away

Dragging LSU into this is bullshite. Especially leading with them denying the body, which they do all the time.

Yep.

The whole article feels like trying to gloss over that simple fact of accountability with browbeating the sympathy element.

Well it was an elderly widowed woman of a WWII vet. I’m assuming she doesn’t know how to use the google machine and was probably taken advantage of. For that I am upset bc I think if they would’ve stated explicitly what they planned to do with the body, she would have objected. As a doctor who had the privilege of dissecting a cadaver in medical school, I have great respect for people who donate their loved ones bodies to us.

Not to mention that people of that generation cannot fathom the depth of today’s generation disgusting immorality and the thought that someone could even dream this up. It’s why the older people get scammed in the phone. They’re a trusting generation and wouldn’t think of doing the things people do today.

Wait. This is legal? This is some 1800’s Edgar Allen Poe horror story subject material.
But then again it’s Portland, Oregon.

This. I still remember my parents leaving the doors unlocked while we went for walks. Now we lock doors even when we're home.

They should be able to. It is their boomer kids that ushered in the depravity. Just look at our Diddler in Chief

Every time I think we as a society are bottoming out a new low pops up.

Have you met a lot of 90+ year olds who are able to research such things effectively?
