:shrug: ...just going by what i hear.

You ever seen the movie "Black Hawk Down"? There's a virtually unwatchable scene where they try to stop the bleeding from a soldier who's had his femoral artery severed.

Never seen it, but own it, must watch tonight to learn more!

Oh man, yeah...that scene is just gut-wrenching, the actor did an amazing job conveying the pain of it.

Wow, this is the first I've heard of this. He was shot "at his home" which sounds like a robbery.

Anyone else think there may be more to this story than is being told?

May he have a speedy recovery...GOD BLESS.

if not life threatening, then at least leg threatening. If blood doesn't make it down to his leg they will have to take it off.

Yeah, think of the plumbing in your house. If the water line going to your downstairs bathroom (leg) is broken, what kind of water pressure will you have in your upstairs shower (brain)?

Artery: carries blood away from heart:

Vein: Carries blood back to the heart.

And yes, you can lose you life quickly in the event of femoral artery dissection.

I suspect there is.

Yeah, good thing it was attended to fast or he'd be dead instead of in critical condition.

A $900,000 house in the "pretty close" ghetto?

Mcan will soon be along to indicate that Shawn Taylor's unecessary bleeding was traumatic to the shooter and jettio will volunteer to file the suit against Taylor's estate.



Its too bad his redneck neighbor didn't shoot those Theives in the yard, before they committed this crime, right....
