Skimming 4chan random a couple of months ago, there was a post on the worst of India. One picture was of a train route with a few tracks and a half dozen people strewn dead across the ground. It was impossible to tell the circumstances, but they were clearly dead and broken. No one cared. All the surroundings were business as usually and no one was responding or concerned. By the way things looked, some had been there for awhile.

Nope. Fuck that. I want nothing to do with such a pathetic amoral society. I will gladly miss my connection out of respect for life, anyone's, everyone's. I care about you digital neighbor reading this now. My slight inconvenience is not worth more than your life.

It is probably very difficult to transport a dead person post mortem, and lessening that journey for your family is important too.

out of respect for life

The fuck does that even mean? They're dead, no life.

I care about you

your life

We'd be dead & not giving a fuck. This "care" seems more about yourself than others.

A previous poster answered the situation definitively. A medical professional needs to declare someone as dead. There have been several cases where a person looked dead but was revived.
