Portland medics complain when they get arrested. Proceed to get mocked about it and informed that protest medics don't get exemptions from arrest. (twitter.com)

Actually trained first aider here.

First rule that is hammered into our heads is to make sure the area is clear of any danger in order for you to safely enter and start administering first aid.

Riots are danger.

Right, I knew that. I mean here in my country to get a driver's licence you have to take a few first aid classes (plus I work in a medicine adjacent field, though not with patients, but at a lab, lol) and we all got told to not freaking play hero and try to do shit when the conditions are not safe.

I just can't imagine proper medical professionals being so dumb. I have been proved wrong before. I don't know how effective Pantifa "combat medics" are.

I really wish this was the case in America. I think it would weed out a lot of the terrible drivers I have to deal with on a daily basis and it would foster some semblance of community and civic duty, which has utterly vanished from the realm.

Well. I mean. We still have our horrid ass drivers. And with everything, they usually said, "you look for these signs, you bandage like this, but like... call the fucking ambulance right away, they are the professionals and you are not, k?"

When I was taking mine a gymrat programmer dude was desperately trying to pick me up too lol. Whole another retarded story.

We've secretly replaced this man's high-trust society with a low-trust society! Let's see if he notices!

Unfortunately, unlike Europe, we require far too much daily commute and travel to not have licenses basically be a given.

America is far too spread out and large for either non-car transportation or public transportation unless you specifically live in a metropolitan area.

Granted, but I still find it irresponsible to require the license but then have no actual requirements beyond paperwork to obtain it. What's the point of it other than needless bureaucracy then?
