Default How can anyone support Katie Hopkins when she made jokes about an Ebola victim?
You may know this story

She made crude jokes about an Ebola victim, a Scottish nurse working in Africa who was transferred from Glasgow to London for treatment.

Her tweet was
"Sending us Ebola bombs in the form of sweaty Glaswegians just isn't cricket."

She is referring to a dedicated nurse who went all they way to Africa to save the lives of people as an "Ebola bomb" and a "sweaty Glaswegian". That's taking it too far. How can anyone support this creature?

I'll ask what I asked you last time you said this ... how on earth is trying to help people "selfish"?

The world needs more people like her, frankly.

What is selfish, however, is begruding the people in West Africa help.

Absolutely.
The nurse was interviewed on TV last week/week before, and she openly admits that her OWN FAMILY have said that they feel it was selfish to go and put herself in the way of contracting a killer virus and she is not going to be doing any more aid work as she has to think of her own family...

As for begrudging the people of West Africa help.. sit and tot up just how much help they have been given over the past 30 years...

She can help whoever she choose to help. It's her life. And you're missing the point entirely. The point being calling a dying woman an "ebola bomb" is completely uncalled for and twisted.

There is nothing wrong with not caring about someone who is ill.

The nurse was smart enough to know that if Ebola wasn't controlled swiftly it would be in the UK and the rest of the world in no time.

The nurse should be given the highest honour for services to humanity - she put herself in the firing line in just the same way soldiers in our Armed Foces do. Her enemy is unseen and more deadly with the potential to wipe out millions of people in a short space of time.

You should be ashamed of yourself for what you wrote above. You obviously belong to the Non-Thinkers Club.

Katie is also a Devil Worshiping child killer. Unless you hate her, you must be evil as well.

It is the law you know.

It was quite a selfless choice really.....she put her own life on the line to help others.....the problem is the screening on her return.

It was selfless Annie,and kudos to the nurse BUT had the scenario been different it could have led to people dying,she should not have been allowed to return until it was certain she was clear.

That's the fault of the people screening and obviously the way people are being screened though, don't you think?
