Man of Honour
But broken links aren't anyone's friends.
(fixed the quoted one so you can edit yours and claim ignorance )
What about reporting crime? Is that mandatory?
If you ignored someone just about to throw themself from a high bridge ?
If you saw someone drowning and just walked on by ?
If you encountered people in a burning building and just carried on your way?
Say you started to save someone by giving mouth to mouth or cardiac compressions but gave up, could you be arrested ?
Also please don't try and do CPR if you're not trained.
This has crossed my mind before. What if your worst enemy was about to suffer a slow James Bond style death that was nothing to do with you and just sat back and said "ho ho ho, I'm going to enjoy this" an waited the 10 minutes it took to kill him.
could maybe get done for failing to report a crime or whatever its proper name is if for example he was being torturedThis has crossed my mind before.

I would personally take the medical experts recommendation which is to perform CPR regardless of training.
What may be relevant to this thread is the fact that two sisters were recently arrested after one murdered her boyfriend with a knife and the other refused to call an ambulance, both were convicted of manslaughter.

So, is NOT ringing the services an inaction that could cause death ?
