Donna's voice was clarion and no more off key than the rest.
May the four winds blow you safely home.

Gutted to hear of the passing of Donna. I never understood the disrespect. She was a hero and a goddess and a stone cold fox and I’ll miss her appearances on the Deadcast very much.

This is a technique known as "physical assault."
We have seen this strategy used before — I shared a while back a cop in Philadelphia doing this (I reported him and never got a response). Countless people on video giving naloxone to people who are awake. This takes it a step further and is absolutely disgusting.
