San Diego workers will power-wash streets with a bleach solution in an attempt to stop the spread of Hepatitis A:
At least 15 people have died in San Diego from an ongoing hepatitis A outbreak. In an effort to stop the spread of the viral liver disease, city officials have begun power-washing streets across the downtown area, according to NBC San Diego.
As of Monday, workers dressed in protective white gear and red hard hats were seen outside spraying the sidewalks with a bleach-based liquid in hopes of killing the virus that lives in human feces. "We're probably going to be doing them every other Monday, see how that works out at least for the time being," Jose Ysea, a city spokesman, told NBC San Diego.
The high-pressure power-washing system using bleach will hopefully remove "all feces, blood, bodily fluids or contaminated surfaces," according to a sanitation plan included in a letter delivered to San Diego city officials, the Associated Press reports. For now, just streets in San Diego are being washed, but in the near future hand-washing and street-sanitizing efforts will be implemented in other cities in the region, Dr. Wilma Wooten, the region's public health officer, told the AP.

The rules are well documented, your faux surprise with the results is just sour grapes. Win or lose, you consented to those results when you submitted your ballot. But you do have the right to remain silent. It would do you well to exercise that right, as of... now :-)

I see. So, according to your reasoning, once consent is obtained, it is not revokable for at least for the immediate time period. So for you it's perfectly okay to take a date out for dinner and a show, back to the home for some sex, and as long as consent was obtained at some point in the prior proceedings, to consummate intercourse at least once, forcibly if necessary to complete the act over any newfound objections? If not, why not?

:-) That procedure is also well documented.

In our pursuit to obtain the specifics of your definition of "consent", we've gone from once obtained, not revokable [soylentnews.org] to what I take as a grudging acknowledgement that consent can be revoked at any time [soylentnews.org]. Which of those two mutually-exclusive definitions is the one you use?

That indicates you have no principles to stand on at all, not even to the point of condemning rape. That message from you is quite telling.

So, abstaining is the proper method of withdrawing consent? Admit it, there is no consent. There is compliance and non-compliance, and the consequences that follow from each.

Trying to get that blowhard to admit anything beyond empty platitudes is a bit of a challenge. fustakrakich can't even admit that rape [soylentnews.org] is wrong [soylentnews.org].
