Permalink Reply by FyreWebmaster on June 19, 2009 at 10:14pm: Agreed, however, the trooper could have handled that whole situation so much better than he did. It looked to me like "p*ssing" contest than professional courtesy. Neither man took the high road and the patient's life wasn't a major concern of either of them. The paramedic should have called his supervisor and another police agency as well as the hospital if he had any real concern for his patient ... and thank God the patient wasn't in a life or death situation or suddenly coded for some reason while the trooper was playing "Mr. Billy Bad-Ass" ...

Things could have turned out so differently.; ▶ Reply to This
