Death Count

[Beach Crew]

Well, I'm not really sure how easy it is to spot. On ER they often have to do x-rays before they notice . I think he was more concerned by the punctured lung and perhaps if he'd had more knowledge would've noticed it earlier.

Again, not a doctor I just know trainee doctors

I was just wondering cos ya know how Jack has infinite knowledge of absolutely everything.

He couldve just done the ...
"Does this hurt?" *Jabs leg*
"ARGGHHHH"
"How badly?"
"ARRRRGGGHHHHHHH badly."
Would be easy to arrive at a conclusion after that.

Well he did set the leg right again did he not??

To be fair, even I as a trainee sports therapst knows that compartment syndrome is a risk, even in normal fractures. A doctor should have known that surely???

Lets see what the great John Locke says about it:

mimes I'm sorry Boone

Boone: your sorry, don't be John I was a sacrifice the island demanded (Sarcastically)

[Him]

He literally said nothing...



You would be better looking to the S2 Finale transcript.

Him, I don't know. We're giving serious responses, lol, and we're not saying Boone is blameless but Locke didn't exactly help the matter.

Not helping doesn't equate to killing, though...

Yes, she was. They were raised as brother and sister since the ages of 10 and 8. Which, I guess, makes them a bit less brother/sister than people who were raised as siblings since birth, but they're still siblings. Way more than Jack and Claire are. Who is more your family, someone you're related to but have never met/have just met as an adult, or someone who's not related to you, but you've grown up thinking of each other as a family? I would say, the latter.

Exactly.

But using The Abbot's logic... Jack killed his father. He ruined his chances of staying sober by acting like a jackass and wrongly accusing him of having an affair with Sarah at the AA meeting, which made Christian fall off the wagon. Then he ruined his career, and ultimately caused him to go to Australia and drink himself to death.

I'm sure we could pin many more "murders" on other people as well, using that kind of logic.

And why aren't you not holding Ben responsible for Goodwin's death? He clearly wanted and planned it to happen. Classic David/Bathseba scenario. That makes a lot more sense than blaming Locke for Boone, or Sun for Jae, or Kate for Thomas.

Pinning Boone's death on Locke is just one of many attempts to bring the man down. It was Boone's choice to go up to the plane, like Him said he's an adult responsible for his own decisions. It was Boone's eagerness to help out that killed him, not Locke.

Exactly. And he was intent to go on talking to the voice on the transmitter even when Locke told him to get the hell out of there ASAP.

I was also kinda disappointed with so many shootings, blood and deaths. No need for that.
