Asking someone who isn't trained in water rescue techniques to jump into the water, at night, to save a drowning person is pretty close to asking them to kill themselves. If you believe that's a cops duty, then alright but then all cops should have mandatory training in water rescue and be required to carry lifebouys with them at all times. Otherwise you are asking untrained people to make a dangerous situation more dangerous. Thats exactly what were asking and were using incidents like this to illustrate that. My concern isnt that they didnt do it. My concern is that we hire people who cant, and that there are people who make excuses for that, acting like we cant or shouldnt make things better for some reason. --- Dallas Cowboys: 1 - 1 <cite>TheVipaGTS posted [p:940501193] in Man drowns...
