This is probably the only unanimous thing to ever happen at the Zone. ;D

We've got a bunch of Ray Donovan wannabes running around in here!  ;)
Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

Am I the only one who'd like to slap Kaci Hickcox?
I would be in that line!

I wouldn't slap her; I'd drop kick her through the goal posts of life.

BUT, I believe her reaction(s) are a microcosm of what I stated would be the end result of such actions upon healthcare workers in this nation. If this grows, look for a real drop in infectious disease doctors, nurses, etc. in the industry. They'll leave like rats leaving a sinking ship.

And they'll go to geriatrics, pediatrics, and other specialties that don't deal with infectious diseases. . .

(CNN) - [Breaking news update, posted at 12:57 p.m. ET]

A Maine judge on Friday ruled that state health officials failed to prove the need for an order enforcing an Ebola quarantine for a nurse who defied the quarantine in a tense standoff with state authorities. District Court Chief Judge Charles LaVerdiere ordered nurse Kaci Hickox, who recently returned to the United States after treating Ebola patients in Sierra Leone, to submit to "direct active monitoring," coordinate travel with public health officials and immediately notify health authorities should symptoms appear. Her attorney, Norman Siegel, called the decision a victory. On Thursday, the judge had ordered stricter limits on Hickox.
