Mail: a truly despicable article ("nothing 'natural' about Stephen Gately's death")

mmm I always thought the first "sign" was a crackling.... in the sense of the noise of breathing...:confused:

having witnessed it in a few instances with 2ndary drowning/scuba/divers I've known over the years... and some other perverse interest I've had with the condition over the years eg there was an artist with cystic fibrosis who recorded the last few years of his life for a Channel4 docu long-time ago...he eventually died of p.o

but that aside... I was also trying to understand how p.o would have come on so quickly without the concern of the sufferer....I guess alcohol/whaddeva could be a factor.

So you've answered some of my questions.ta. :cool:



still,,,,anyways,,, awful end, concious or not.:(

I already boycott the companies mentioned for a variety of reasons & the DM as a rule...but believe the OPs intentions to be both honourable & correct.

gluk. :)

You are right that wheeziness is generally the very first symptom, but someone deeply asleep would not usually wake.
 
I can't really say any more than has already been posted but I'm horrified that vile,hateful trash like this is published in mainstream newspapers.
 
Normally I just role my eyes at outrage at tabloid outrage, but I have to say that's a pretty sick column, not worse than the sort of thing Peter Hitchens for example would write, but still.

Good luck with getting the bitch punished, I'll even email the Observer.
 
I've just contacted the Gay Times about it - they're on the case now.
I'll forward the extra info too.
 
She's now trending in position 2 on twitter, unlikely to claim the top position because that’s ‘Follow Friday’*.

* For the benefit of danny, that’s people recommending new people to follow, to their existing followers, and tends to always be number one on Fridays.

Regarding the cause of death, I am keeping an open mind because I do not think that post mortem findings rule out the vomit theory. But at the very most this could only lead to a sensible debate about the term 'natural causes', it in no way justifies this vile and hideous article that has made me sad and angry. Im not sure if the backlash against the article will achieve much but its worth trying anyway, what a disgrace. I consider articles like these to be far more unnatural than anything Gately could possibly have gotten up to in his lifetime.
 
Just read this Tweet:

''I've just seen a Tube worker shout "stupid bitch!" at Jan Moir - now what do I do??'' She's probably written tons of articles on figures of hate, now she's finding out what it's like to be one.
