Sometimes I have to laugh, else I cry. Today's Guardian has a story of the brother of Dean Knolly Clarke, a JP, being shot and killed.
The story begins with the words 'Shortly after the killing...' then goes on to describe that the man had a faint pulse and she tried to give him CPR but was pushed aside by the police.
So... was he dead after the killing? Apparently not. Stupid Guardian reporters and editors again. Now I remember why I prefer the Express since pre-Common Entrance days.
To get to the point of the police preventing the reporter from assisting in giving CPR, I have to say this is what comes from hiring people with 3 'O' levels to protect and serve. Most so damn dunce they can't find their arse with a roll of toilet paper after crapping. Unbelievable the actions of the duncey officer on the scene. Wonder how he'd have felt if a Clarke family member 'buss a cap in he arse' and he had to wait on an ambulance? Think he'd want CPR then, or wait on an ambulance?
Some years ago, I had a man drop dead of a heart attack in an office where I worked. I placed him in my car and took him to the hospital, even though I knew he was dead.
After I returned to the office, I was questioned by the police (who finally arrived after I left) as to why I moved the body. I told the officer (a senior duncey) that since only a doctor could certify a person dead (according to law), I was not sure he was dead, so I merely took him to where he could get the best help, i.e. Accident and Emergency. Duncey couldn't argue with that logic and nothing came of the incident.
So many times I read about people waiting on DMO, ambulances etc and the victim down on the ground dying. Listen up people. Take them to get help. Ignore the dunceys. If they get in the way, buss a cap in dey arse, it might help the remainders smarten up.
