If the Calgary Flames were on the Titanic, how many women and children would they throw over board to sharks?

All of them. Because the sharks would probably have a boat of their own, why else would a nhl team be in the middle of the ocean. And I highly doubt that the sharks and flames would take the same boat.

Sixth paragraph and keep reading

Obviously, you're a little behind the times. Any half-wit lawyer can argue this, and it does make sense: they are high-risk, and they don't want to cause a scene. Imagine a bunch of healthy people all crammed together in a single space during a pandemic (the word has more bark than bite). It didn't occur to you that that scenario is a huge health risk? Was it handled appropriately before it was released to the media? No. Was it necessary? I would say so. Get off the BC pot and always look at the two sides of the coin.

Get real, the H1N1 probably isn't. And since when did women and children become more important then Hockey? Geesh!

Secondly, San Jose is not going to take the side of women and children either.

Thirdly, why aren't you making the same rant against prison inmates, illegal aliens, Guantanamo Bay terrorist prisoners, and minorities. All of whom went ahead of everyone, including pregnant women and children.

How could you rather want to see proven hockey talent die than children? Children are overrated. Thousands are born every minute, and 99% of them amount to nothing. Besides, they were probably going to grow up to be rapists and criminals anyways. They might be doing the world a favour.

Congratulations on the reading comprehension level of a gerbil.

Someone outside of the club offered them shots (they have been subsequently sacked). The title of the article is pretty accurate- someone with the provincal Health organisation is the one that offered up the shots.

So to borrow your analogy...if you're on the Titanic and a member of the ship's crew says to you "here, get on this boat"...you're going to back off? In that moment of panic you're going to stop and do a body count in some half-handed display of chivalry? Sure, mate.

You 100% misread the article. Nowhere in that article does it imply that the Flames and their families think they are all that and a bag of chips. They simply wanted to get the shots b/c they all travel and are at risk. duh!As for not waiting in line w/us common folks they are pretty smart. What if you were a hockey celeb and had to wait in line and be hounded for pics, stupid pb questions, and all that nonsense?

If I were pregnant I would NOT get the shot. It has not been tested enough for me to take the risk of having a severe reaction. I know people who have had the h1n1 and it's nbfd. In fact, the reg. flu is worse.

Proof that there's not enough intelligence to go around exists in the form of your question.

"Youth is wasted on the young."

It was a health clinic that gave them the invite.

A senior health official got fired becuase of it as well.

Isn't Calgary the city where they shoot horses after they compete in their Stampede?

No, a Calgary medical clinic told the organization that they had shots if they wanted to get them for them and their families.

God, what horrible people for not wanting their families to die! They should burn in hell!

edit - 3 thumbs down? You guys do know the second part was sarcastic, right?
