    No good deed goes unpunished. Two men in Baltimore took a raft out into the icy waters to free a deer from being stranded in/on the ice. They successfully freed the stranded deer and got it to shore.

    A DNR officer observed the incident and made no comments to them about "not wearing life vests," despite going in and out of the water several times. Only after the incident was over did the officer issue the two men tickets for their safety violation.

    Nanny government strikes again. They're just looking after us.

    If someone would have fallen through the ICE the liability is directly on the shoulders of the officers that were there AND WERE EYE WITNESSES TO PEOPLE BEHAVING WRECKLESSLY AND DID ABSOLUTLY NOTHING.

    Why? Since when do witnesses have "direct liability" on what other people do?

    And if so, why didn't this genius stop them during the incident instead of hitting them with a tax bill after the fact?

    This is just another example of how everything is illegal in Soviet America. Gosh, I am so thankful I have to pay for ignorant twits to punish the few selfless, good Americans that still exist in this country.

    Can you give me an example of a witness being punished for being a witness?

    South v. Maryland
    Bradshaw v. Prince George's County
    Ashburn v. Anne Arundel County

    Leo's/cities countys sued for failure to act.


    I gaurentee there would have been a law suit if someone would have fallen through that ice and got hurt. Why didnt the cops stop them?

    you tell me since you know all.


    I don't know anything I have not experienced. Unlike some people on here I dont pretend like I do. I came here to LEARN more about guns...Maybe hit up some of these classes outside of the standard range training. All the negative LEO stuff on here is crazy. I ASSUMED since everyone I personally know who enjoys guns are good people it would be more of the same on here. Its crazy to think there are so many people on here that have guns and despise the gov/leos. I don't think things are perfect or what they onces were but have been to other countries.....this is by far the best one. Anyway not trying to hijack thread just my :twocents:

    you do know the police have no obligation to help someone right? there only there to investigate the crime and take witness statements. You need to find another forum to go troll in if you can't take peoples opinions.

    I would encourage the deer to sue that DNR officer for not diving in the icy water with the upstanding citizens.

    I thought it was bad enough that its a criminal action to "not wear your arm floaties." Now I am informed that it is also a criminal offense to be a bystander. God have mercy on this country. Everything that is not forbidden is mandatory.
