well this is,really, a drastically different situation LadyLorraine Send a noteboard - 21/06/2010 08:11:39 AM
In this case, the arrested man was actually HOLDING the stroking woman in his arms. That police officer could have ended up being directly responsible for her not making it into a doctor in time for proper treatment, simply for being an anal stickler.

Whereas your friend's situation is still sad, but his dad wasn't magically going to live if he did make it there and no one's life was on the line.

In this case, that officer directly put another person in danger of their life.

Carrying a woman into the ER doesn't really scream "made up excuse" - 21/06/2010 12:24:30 AM 1329 Views
Time and place. - 21/06/2010 02:25:27 AM 935 Views

i cant even take this seriously. - 21/06/2010 04:28:12 AM 1021 Views
he clearly wasn't just "making up an excuse" though. - 21/06/2010 10:59:13 AM 1067 Views
unfortunately the law is on the officer's side, no matter whether he acted correctly - 21/06/2010 07:09:13 AM 865 Views
well this is,really, a drastically different situation - 21/06/2010 08:11:39 AM 913 Views
the point is, the officer is not required to show compassion, only enforce the law - 21/06/2010 11:53:51 PM 764 Views
no. a officer is NOT only required to hold up the law. - 22/06/2010 12:28:05 AM 776 Views
i'm not disagreeing with you - 22/06/2010 01:25:43 AM 888 Views
except in this case (you seem to be ignoring this) - 22/06/2010 01:35:21 AM 831 Views
At the very least the officer should have let medical personnel take the woman in for treatment - 21/06/2010 02:56:30 PM 828 Views
But... - 21/06/2010 04:58:06 PM 927 Views
"The fact is that the man broke the law" is nonsense. That's what judgment is for. - 21/06/2010 05:30:26 PM 893 Views
But you can get pulled over for going 1 mile over. - 21/06/2010 05:59:51 PM 895 Views
the thing is... - 22/06/2010 12:29:43 AM 773 Views
But then he's have to use a cell phone while driving! Another crime! *NM* - 22/06/2010 02:41:51 AM 453 Views

This is ridiculous - 22/06/2010 03:18:03 AM 910 Views
How exactly did I justify anything? Perhaps you missed the subject of my post. - 22/06/2010 02:28:21 PM 862 Views
I'm saying the fact that the law was broken is totally irrelevent, - 23/06/2010 02:15:56 AM 939 Views
How can it be even slightly irrelevant, let alone "totally" so? - 25/06/2010 03:24:19 PM 811 Views
It is sad when idiocy and a lack of judgment becomes codified into law backed with enforcement power - 21/06/2010 09:56:32 PM 1398 Views
i don't even know if I'd be happy with a lawsuit - 22/06/2010 12:31:18 AM 821 Views
The cop should be fired and fined - 23/06/2010 03:40:32 PM 804 Views
You are such a bleeding heart liberal.. - 25/06/2010 03:22:42 AM 799 Views
