So if there's no AED in my neighborhood, everyone is on an equal footing.
How on earth can a discussion of a possible life saving device be construed into everyone being on equal footing. This is the most ridiculous argument I have engaged in on TOTV. If there is something that could benefit even one person and save their life why are we even discussing this??? What difference does it make how they have chosen to live their life up till this point - we are compassionate human beings that hopefully look out for our fellow man. If you wish not to contribute to this effort, fine, but for heavens sake why would you feel so compelled to challenge it???
