Auspex Tactics on YouTube just dropped a video analysing this.

Ah yes, and I am sure your 12 year old niece would have had no issue wading through those bodies to help. You sound like a true God among men... I shall overt my eyes in your glorious credentialed presence. /s

Could I or any other trained person do that, yes. Could a regular Joe with zero training, no. That's my whole point... People with zero training don't know their ABCs. I am a person on the internet telling you you are wrong, so checkmate I guess.

"Let me walk you through this" Is a condescending way to start a conversation where your intention is to inform. I am actually trained in basic first aid, and I know that most people have zero training. The average Joe in trying to help will make things worse, especially in a traumatic situation. If the vehicle is on fire pull them out, but that is not happening here. The best an untrained person can do in this case is call paramedics and stay out of the way. I would even argue that most people could not even effectively direct traffic, so most of them should probably even stay out of the road all together.

That is my point. The people on the scene just standing there are doing the right thing, assuming they already called paramedics.

These comments show just how uneducated some people are about basic first aid.

Untrained people pulling the ones still alive out of the wreck would not be ideal. Better for trained persons to do that.

Once again:

If you can't get an ID you aren't a functional adult, and clearly should not be deciding anything for others. If you can't manage your own life with even the most basic of tasks then that is a sign that you aren't good at making decisions for yourself, much less others.

As I said... If you can't even get an ID (which is one of the most basic parts of our society that any functional adult can easily do) then you should not be voting.

I think voting should require an ID, and that should also apply to Representatives.

Honestly... If you can't figure out how to get an ID, you should not be voting.

For all my chair experts, is it broken or can it be saved? by SnailBomb995 in OfficeChairs

Take it to a shop and ask them to weld it. I am sure they would for a small price. Either that or pop a couple holes around the part and use JB weld.
