Youre afraid to save a persons life because there is a near zero chance that a very unlikely hypothetical situation may occur? Youre okay with letting someone die because you might get verbally chided, or worse, have someone misunderstand and be slightly rough with you? Wow.

I honestly can’t imagine being this scared of the world.

Yes, I am.

I’m not risking jail over this crap. Lost a job over it once, so I have personal, first-hand experience with the bullshit.

Verbally chided? Getting sued for SA and getting your life ruined doesn’t really seem like “verbally chided”. Yeah, I’d probably let people die because my life is more important.

You can’t say “near zero” you don’t have the numbers.

It depends entirely on circumstance.

And you know that.

But it’s wonderful that you want to judge me as a keyboard warrior. I applaud how tough you are. Have a nice day.

Please, give me any numbers that show people have been harassed, threatened or injured while performing CPR on a women.

You consider it an unlikely but possible threat. I would like to see what data informs that threat to you.

I expect its none, and instead you just want to feel persecuted because “women standing up for themselves in modern society makes me scared, so im going to pretend thats why i wont help a women that’s dying.”

Again, fear driven and sad.

You’re the one who claimed near zero, onus is on you.

We’re both aware that the numbers don’t exist and aren’t kept.

Suggesting that’s a fault in my argument but not yours is asking me to provide evidence to prove your point wrong. “Burden of proof” fallacy if you will.

But that’s not the point. Plenty of people get accused of impropriety for doing less than lifting a woman’s shirt…. And if I have to apply a defibrillator, it’s not going to do much if I don’t get it under her shirt.

We both know that reaching under her shirt can be perceived poorly especially if someone doesn’t notice the defibrillator.

But I’ll back up my statements with references

Will you do the same? Or will you continue to ask me for information to back up your arguments?

You made the suggestion that it was “near zero” and now you’re asking me for proof that it isn’t near zero.
