The women say they guided agents through the emergency, later raising concerns about medical protocols, weapons safety and accountability.

      Don’t forget to throw comments at him like “eat shit, twitchy” while you do. It is ethically acceptable to let ICE agents die without intervention. This is just a new stage of the Trolly problem and if you intervene so save this life it will go on to take many more.

      “I asked if we could just go home,” Amundson said. “I said, ‘We just saved his life. Is that cool with you?’ And they said no.”

      What stayed with Amundson most, she said, was not the adrenaline of the moment but the realization that came while she was holding the agent’s head in her hands and keeping his airway open. “I was hit so hard with the fact that this man would not do this for me,” she said. Her mind went immediately to Renee Good.

      I don’t know what I would have done. :( probably the same they did, after a moment of reflection, I would have hated it, and maybe myself for it, but I’m not sure I can just watch someone die.

          Yeah, I know, and that’s why I would be so conflicted and possibly hate doing it. It’s impossible to know unless I was in the situation, but I know that I care a lot, and have a big heart, it gets me into trouble often doing stupid things to help other people who end up using or taking advantage of me. Then in the other hand, how horrible the agents are…. Ugh. I just don’t know!
