ruthiechan Posted December 20, 2008 Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 Have you all seen that yahoo video? It's a featured video when you go to yahoo.com right now. Someone wants to sue a fellow for helping her out because she was "treated like a rag doll" and that's why she became a paraplegic... Yahoo!

john doe Posted December 20, 2008 Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 People like that need a 'do not rescue' bracelet. That way people can just let them die without worrying if they could have helped them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I doubt I would be able to do so.I suspect there is much we don't know. But what a tragedy this is all the way around.Elphaba Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeattleTruthSeeker Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 Honestly, if someone were to sue me because I helped them out in a life or death situation, then I would counter-sue them for emotional turmoil and physical threat to my life. Let us see how people like this lady would feel when the good samaritans turn the table and start counter-suing them for cause an endangerment to life. If they can sue us, then we by law ought to sue them because of their own cause of danger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADoyle90815 Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 I think it's sad that good Samaritans are at risk for trying to help people in life or death situations, often at risk to their own lives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
