If I ever suffer a head injury in Brooklyn . . .

just let me die.

Via World Net Daily comes this article: "Hit on the head and gets rectal exam?"

Teaser graphs:
"A visit to a hospital for a bump to the head turned into a big pain in the posterior for a Brooklyn construction worker.

"Brian Persaud ended up in handcuffs and under arrest when he loudly protested that doctors at New York-Presbyterian Hospital Weill Cornell didn't need to give him a rectal exam after a piece of wood clocked him on the forehead.

"'This poor guy goes in for eight stitches and he ends up in jail,' said his lawyer, Gerard Marrone. 'He had the right to say no.'

"Doctors sedated Persaud and then did the rectal exam."
