And I still don't agree with you that nobody here who's complaining will try to help.

You want to see the glass as half-empty, and I see it as half-full. I just feel sorry for the half-empties.

To be honest, I see a whole lot of moral outrage here, when in my I'd wager those same people ranting against all of society, wouldn't do a damn thing differently

I shall leave as an exercise to the reader to determine why attempting the Heimlich in this situation is a Bad Idea.

Just because he was still passing air, and had a chance to dislodge the block on his own. Or may have simply breathed in a drink of water.

You could have helped the man without really helping him.

How about stopping traffic, or something along those lines.

Just because a study shows that if more people are around they are less likely help does not make it right.

"Right" and "true" are rarely bedfellows.
