in response to ajm3s:

In a fairness to Chief Murphy, what he demonstrated is that non-trained citizens cannot drag a gurney with a councilman in tow through a #57 rock that is non-compacted along a narrow land borderd by a building and shrubbery on the each side.

Conclusion: Do not allow untrained personnel to assist in rescue operations.

However, folks, the demonstration seriously convinced some. I know Waldack was convinced he told me so. God help us all.

I couldn't agree more. I know professional paramedics, they find this hilarious.

Let me be the devils advocat.
What happens if a medical emergency happens on the beach? Will the person have to wait till help from Naples or Ft.Myers gets there to take them across the unstable sand? Do they have to hope that good samaritans drag them to a stable sidewalk so they can be transported?

What if it happens in their backyard? At the Park?

What a joke. Give these people their C.O. and move on to things that are really important.
