Where is Whittingtons family?
I have been busy today. But I have not heard anything about his family. Have they given any interviews? I hope they are not being held back from talking. I thought I heard something about his brother but I could be wrong.
Does anyone know if they have a spokesperson?
Thanks.

1. The 'family' supposedly has told the hospital to stop
giving the press information. That's all I've heard.

2. Last thing I heard was on Wolff's show.
He had scheduled the Dr. from the ER to be on his show, and Whittington's family contacted the Dr and asked him not to speak publicaly anymore, so he canceled his appearance with Wolff. As far as I know, they have no spokesperson, and are at least giving the impression they don't want to say anything!

12. I don't know. I've been asking myself what would I do if a friend
assidently shot my husband while they were out hunting? I still don't really have an answer to myself. I THINK I would respond similarly to the was the Whittington's are. I'm sure they realize this was an accident, are pissed off that it happened and that Cheney was so irresponsible, but not hold it against him, and hate the publicity.

5. The press and the rest of the little people are way below this family.
I'm sure they don't believe they owe anything to anyone. Which would be just fine if it was about privacy. People in their rarified atmosphere would do this out of distain for the general public, not because they don't want to be hounded by the media. We are all insignificant insects to them.

7. Ever wonder?
if he might have died at the scene? We don't see him! We don't see his family! I know it is somewhat on the paranoid side, but who could put it past them? Certainly not me! ha! The story of the BB moving through the bloodstream..and that is the only way it could move to the heart, does not make any sense at all. If it had, if fact, moved, it would have moved via the artery into the heart..it would not have moved "somehow" to the outside of the heart..and then "irritated" the heart muscle by touching it on the outer edge...thus causing a mild heart attack. It either lodged there when it entered his body or it did not get there at all. if it had traveled at all, it would have gone into the interior of the heart via the main arteries into the heart. Nothing really makes sense about this "accident".

10. Yeah . . . I'd like to get see a pic of him with his bandaged face . . .
. . . and he can be giving us the finger, I don't care. I just would like to see a pic of him ventilated, but alive.


Cuz . . . he's sustained a "minor peppering", a "minor heart attack", and ya gotta wonder if maybe he's in a "minor coma" or laid out on a "minor slab" in an insignificant, out-of-the-way morgue . . . sorta, kinda . . . dead.

9. Good Question!! - Think "Protective Custody" / Witness Protection Program
.
.
.

Anything to keep them from going public -

Cuz there a hell of a lot of questions the PNACers don't wanna hafta answer

That extra 20 hours would have allowed them to locate/relocate and "debrief" most family members . .

BTW

To hit a man in the face, neck and chest with a shotgun,

The rifle woulda hafta been aimed almost dead centre at the man's heart

With an "error margin" of 3% or so . . . .

Accident my ass . . .
