Woman in labor may sue for unlawful arrest - UPI.com - http://www.upi.com/Top_New...
VAL D., Anna Haro, Anika and polymath22 liked this
"A woman forcefully held by Jacksonville, Fla., police while she was in premature labor may sue for unlawful arrest but not for excessive force, a court ruled. Melanie Dawn Williams, 28, was seven months pregnant and driving to a hospital on doctor's orders in 2005 when she ran a red light, a police report said. Two officers chased her to the hospital, tackled her in the emergency room and dragged her, handcuffed, back outside, the report said. Eventually a nurse came outside, found Williams bleeding from premature labor and insisted she be taken to the hospital's labor and delivery unit, where doctors successfully staved off labor."

"She spent 10 days in the hospital. The officers were disciplined, The (Jacksonville) Florida Times-Union reported. One officer told internal affairs investigators Williams hadn't mentioned being pregnant until they handcuffed her, but a panel of the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta said that didn't matter. It said that once they knew Williams was in medical distress,...

how about the next time a police man sees a person rushing towards the hospital they offer an escort instead of excessive force? where do the polive get the idea that enforcing a red light is so important? shouldn't our public servants be out... serving the public? at least in a more productive way. see, stories like these give ALL cops a bad name, but they all protect each other, and eventually all grow corrupt together.
- polymath22
Call me crazy, but how is tackling a pregnant woman NOT excessive force? I can only presume that landing fetus first from a tackle would be exceptionally dangerous...

Just another story that's hard to believe... when will the cops clean up their act.

I have seen this before and find it fascinating especially the parts of the country where it's referred to as a Coke. What happens if you want a Pepsi or a Sprite?
- Kenton
Heh, good question, Kenton
- Tyson Key
It's always called a 'Coke' regardless of what the beverage actually is. At least that's how it is/was with my country Southern relatives.
- Derrick
But Derrick what I don't get is if you are in a restaurant that serves many different things, how would you order? I can see it if you go to someone's house and they say what do you want and you say Coke, you get what they have, but the restaurant part confuses me.
- Kenton
Strange but true: I checked http://popvssoda.com as part of my job interview preparations before taking this job in Memphis back in 2005.
- Daniel J. Pritchett
the same thing that happens when you call facial tissues Kleenex but you refer to a product other than Kleenex. it's not terribly complicated :). i call it soda-pop, which may be due to an unhealthy exposure to the Outsiders as a child. @Kenton in an environment where it's Coke, you would likely be asked what type in that situation, just as you would if you said you'd like a soda-pop and there was more than one type available.
- jocoda
Kenton, they'd say they wanted a Coke, then the waiter/waitress would say what kind, then they'd say root beer, 7Up, whatever afterwards. I always just asked for iced tea.
- Derrick
LOL Derrick, that sounds like the safe thing to do.
- Kenton
I always say "soda" in hopes of avoiding the "you asked for Coke but all we have is Pepsi, is Pepsi OK?" question because I am happy drinking whichever. They always ask though, so I guess I need a new gambit. Worse, my parents like to pull out the old "were you raised by Yankees?!" when I say "soda" in their presence.
- Daniel J. Pritchett
Anyone know what an "other" might be?
- Frank Senseney
Frank: soft drink, fizzy, and cola come to mind.
- Mark Trapp
Restaurants work the same way here, at least in Texas. The waitress takes your drink order, and you tell her what you want. No one here says "coke" generically, to a waitress. If the waitress asks me what I want to drink and I want Dr. Pepper, I say, "Dr. Pepper." However, in casual conversation, "coke" means soft drink here and when someone wants a soft drink, we say "I want a coke."

I think I say "soda." It's hard to say, because I generally call my beverage "DVC" (The right initials never stuck in my head when I switched from Diet Vanilla Coke to Vanilla Coke Zero, besides, VCZ is not as cool to say). I rarely ever use a generic term. My country-deepsouthern relatives say "pop."
- MiniMage TKDteacher of FF
Why are people using the terms "country" and "southern" as meaning the same thing?
- Trish R
Here in Australia they are usually called soft drinks or fizzy drinks, as opposed to beer which if often called "piss". "Let's have a piss-up, who's going to get the piss?" Classy eh?
- jjprojects
The widespread emergence of using a specific brand of soda to refer to all types when many different types are vastly different from each other puzzles me. You can compare it to Xerox, but on the other hand you get the same result from a Xerox copy machine and a Lexmark copy machine while there's a drastic difference between Sprite, Coke, Dr. Pepper, et al. Reading the above comments I see how it's used, but how it's used seems like a waste of time to me.
