So the surgeon dared turn his back on the shooter. Typical white supremacist move.

They need to do public services. Louisiana, for one, is covered in fricking litter. Go pick up trash sun up to sun down. Or dig ditches and pull back overgrown vegetation near public roads. Or paint curbs. Or whatever. Always blew my mind we don't have these people actually working for us.


This is the rational common sense way of thinking.

However, because people get their feelings hurt and the optics of it, based on how many black folks are incarcerated, liberals would then turn the program into calling it it modern day slavery and indentured servitude to the government so we can’t do that

I'm torn on this. Teaching criminals a trade is a good thing on the whole.... But I do know that there is a lot of literal trash on the streets that need to be cleaned up

This is my bosses friend. We were driving back from training in Orlando when he got the news. Sad stuff.

I want the old school mentality back. A cop on a horse with a shotgun watching these worthless humans doing hard labor. Instead they get three hots and a cot and AC.

1) he was off of his psyc meds
2) they were reducing amount and strength of pain meds
3) Campbell Clinc was in process of discharging him as a patient. (The used with me was CC was firing him as a patient)

You are right about DeSoto county. I live in one of the best towns in Ms and that is Hernando. Wife and I brought our home here 16 years ago and we love it. There is a tight race for Sheriff here between a white guy Mike Lee and a black candidate that a lot of people like. I have not decided yet, but both promised to protect county from thugs from Memphis

Where is this being reported? I've seen it mentioned on here a couple of times but nothing in the news articles I've read on it.

He probably heard Joe of Kamala saying how doctors are racist and black people die at a disproportionate rate under their care.

I hope this man rots in hell.


Pharmacy workers are threatened by these types on a daily basis. They always want to pick up their narcotics earlier and earlier. Tell them no and they flip out. Surprised there are not more incidents like this.

When people get mad at me for not prescribing pain meds, I print out the form they signed in their new patient packets from their very first visit saying I don't do pain management. And at the bottom of that form is a list of pain management folks who do.


exactly the proper medical protocol. Orthopedic surgeon likely ordered diagnostic testing to objectively delineate if the patient was a candidate for surgery. Once the patient was at MMI (maximum medical improvement), Ortho would provide a medical release to return to work with appropriate restrictions. If the ortho felt pain management was necessary, he would have referred the patient to a PM doctor. Most big ortho clinics have a PM doctor on staff along with their own pharmacy - all the money is kept in house.

another possibility - the disgruntled patient/murderer was released to RTW at full duty. He was hoping to get a permanent and total doctor release so he could apply for social security disability. The patient chart and office visit progress notes will confirm Dr. treatment recommendations.

prayers sent for the Dr., his family, and patients who were actively treating with him.

This is what I'm thinking. Folks get very upset when you don't grant them their wish to make them a paid couch potato.
