Hollywood vs disabled take two

I have had several posts complaining that Hollywood's bias against the disabled and toward the idea it's okay to kill the disabled is good...

What I didn't know is that the woman who inspired the film "Million dollar baby"....is alive and well.

Like the boxer in Million Dollar Baby, Katie Dallam was a Missouri girl who grew up in poverty. In 1996, Katie began boxing. After just two months of training, her trainer urged her into a professional match and Katie stepped into the ring with a far more experienced boxer. By the end of four two-minute rounds, the referee stopped the fight, but it was too late. Katie had received 150 blows to the head and was comatose by the time she reached a hospital. Doctors told Katie’s sister that she “probably wouldn’t make it, and, if she did, would most likely be a vegetable.”

But Katie survived. She had to relearn how to walk and read. And her injuries affected her vision and memory. Deeply depressed, she attempted suicide. But instead of helping her sister kill herself, her sister, Stephanie, moved Katie into her home.

Unable to go back to her counseling job, Katie took up an earlier interest and began painting again.

Seeing Million Dollar Baby gave Katie nightmares. But it also led to her decision to talk with others about life after a devastating brain injury. As Katie told the New York Times, the fictional coach in Million Dollar Baby “took the easy way out by killing [the boxer] rather than having to deal with what her life would have been like.”

Katie’s sister, Stephanie, is convinced the film writer, F. X. Toole, now deceased, based the film on Katie. Too many similarities, she says.

If this is true, it indeed shows that the film is propaganda on the line of "ich klage an".....indeed, given yesterday's LATimes article, it suggests that killing of disabled is the REAL agenda behind what is called "assisted suicide"...
