Using the "lawsuits" as an argument is ridiculous. First of all, nothing guarantees you that he would get charged or that he'd do anything negligent. EVEN IF we could consider that as a certain possibility, what kind of court would charge him? He was on a break, off duty, correct? Then he would be just another man helping a sick woman. And if we get charged for helping the fellowman, when nobody else can, then in that day we can officially say our world is completely fucked up.

Besides, if you're an EMT they you should at the least care about people enough to help a dying pregnant woman. Wait, let me rephrase that. If you're a decent human being you should at least care about people enough to help a dying pregnant woman... even if that means delaying your precious snack time >_>


It's happened... many times before.  People getting sued for saving other peoples lives.   Like many MANY times before.  The thing is... a LOT of people act negativly towards people who are in tight spots and/or injured etc... because they just hate the idea that they were in such a situation and get angry at themselves they were in such situations and get mad and lash out at others... and often the person who saved them, blaming any injuries they did sustain on them, rather then being happy they are alive.
