In Minnesota you must render aid when the threat has been stopped. Rendering aid does not mean you must get down in the blood and guts which I would strongly suggest nobody does. With HIV you don't know what they may have. Rendering aid is calling 911 and requesting the police and an ambulance, that is all.
I wonder -
If we had had to shoot to save ourselves, and had managed successfully to neutralize the BG - would we then have any thoughts for administering 1st aid, plugging holes, tourniquets - CPR even?
I can think of numerous BG categories where we would probably feel -''let the ****** rot", but maybe too some more borderline cases - might we yield to the wish many of us have within, to save a life, even if here it was one that had nearly taken ours.
Again - I wonder ............ something to chew over.
To add - this based maybe on the(my anyways) wish to not kill (for killing's sake) but simply to neutralize threat - which is of course very likely to be fatal.
