What’s happened is the US judicial system has decided that if you make a fireman or policeman legally liable, then everyone has to be. Meaning if you see that your neighbor is in an emergency situation, it’s not enough to call 911, you have to respond and can be found liable, if emergency responders are.
That doesn’t make sense to me though because fireman/policemen have special training and equipment that an average person does not. What is their justification for this?

It’s stupid.
