Yeah, I thought they were gay at first too. Too bad they're not (what?...that'd mean nobody was hurt ;) ). But anyway... I'm assuming Champion survived, right?

Excellent, thanks for that link. Interesting read, although I somewhat disagree. I guess it's true for some people, but I doubt most people can learn to change their sexuality like that. It's a nice thought though...

You think it would have been less obscene to let the man die then give him CPR? Its nice to know that letting someone die is less of a sin in your eyes than touching your lips to them, and really shows the true nature of what you claim to be a moral belief.

This pic is great for one main reason: It shows many people how they unfairly jump to conclusions when they read the description.
And then some people don't read or jump to conclusions anyway, but reading isn't the strong point of most bigots.

Rocco Morabito won the 1968 Pulitzer Prize for Spot Photography for this photograph - “The Kiss of Life.”
Apprentice lineman J.D. Thompson is breathing life into the mouth of another apprentice lineman, R.G. Champion, who hangs unconscious after receiving a jolt of high voltage.
Morabito was driving on West 26th Street in July 1967 on another assignment when he saw Champion dangling from the pole. He called an ambulance and grabbed his camera.
Champion recovered.
In 2000, Rocco Morabito, at the age of 79, said, ”I get requests all the time from people who teach mouth-to-mouth resuscitation and have proof that it works. I am proud of that.”

The posters who are offended by this photo are clearly repressed, closet homosexuals..it's called reaction-formation, and is well-understood in psychology...they have no idea how well they signal their true natures to the informed..

bob1, go easy on him, it's probably his first time... and remember that "Vagine" is the masculine *non- combining* word form of the body part he has chosen for a nickname. This choice suggests that deep down, Vagine is both conflicted and aware of his own inner divisiveness -- He wants to be full-filled by your loving words --but he's scared that he can't face the truth. As long as you expand the dark recesses of his tiny little id, gently using the three fingered probe of your logic, your patience, and your love to lubricate his way, I'm sure the two of you can can learn to love exchanging *ideas* with each other ;D

So, Vagina..you actually claim to be a guy, and a regular heterosexual guy, and yet the name you've chosen for yourself is, essentially, "pussy?" That, plus your superheated anti-gay ranting, just might make some of us wonder about what you're trying to over-compensate for.

This from someone who has chosen to use as nickname the performance alias of aout and proud gay man...

I think this pic is awesome. My Grandfather was killed before I was born by being electrocuted while being a journey-man working on electric lines.

i feel you michelle, i have a dear friend who's dad was electrocuted to death working on a power line and she'll probably never recover from the trauma. bless your grandfather and her father, just guys doing their job and suddenly ZAP and it's trauma all around. hopefully your grandfather's company paid a decent life insurance.
