It does not have to be life over dignity. There can be a middle ground they could at least provide a cover while doing their thing. I know a teen girl who changed school, did therapy and tried to sue because she once had a seizure and they stripped her naked in front everyone to save her. Her "friends" took video of her and spread it all over their school. As awful as it sounds I'm not making this up.

Fuck the other kids for taking and sharing videos, people suck.

Yup, and that's exactly why men don't help. They tried to save her, but got sued. It's really not worth it.

I'd expect the people who shared footage to be sued, not the first responders.

Why does almost no one clear the area in these posted experiences? That was covered in my (very) basic first aid training. It was emphasized, and it came with a heavy reminder that patient care should be a very high priority. I'm honestly just suprised to read all of these.

Y'all need better trainers and better Good Samaritan laws to protect you. What a world where someone just dies when they could have been saved by someone who was already nearby. Society sucks. Neither "angle" is great.

Yup, society sucks. It's probably selfish of me, but I ain't saving someone when it's possible that I get accused of SA. It's just not worth it. The hassle and the possiblilty of being labelled could affect my future and jobs.
