Examples of incapacitation in a Sentence

  1. David Curry:

    The Kim dynasty is responsible for perpetuating deplorable human rights conditions in the name of propping up the regime, the death or incapacitation of Kim Jong Un is likely the only opportunity for this generation to see a historic resurgence of human rights protections for North Korean citizens.

  2. Barbara Bowman:

    It makes me sick, and it sends a very wrong message about what consent really means, consent is not the absence of a' no.' And when you put drugs and alcohol in the mix, and put a person into a state of impairment and incapacitation where they're not able to respond in a normal setting, it's manipulative. It's diabolical. It's controlling. And it's typical behavior and thinking of a sociopath.

  3. Sean Hendrickson:
