Scenario for any liberal:
A suicidal nut is sitting on the side of a major highway on a high bridge. On the inside of the fence so he's not in danger of falling yet.
He says "Stay the fuck back....or I'll get up and jump. And maybe take you with me."
You "wait it out and talk it out" for 4 hours. It fails.
You could taze him and instantly end it.
BUUUUT....the 4th Circuit just outlawed that.
Now....you have to get near him and fight him. He might stand up to fight....and maybe drag you with him over the edge.
Or....you can just keep Major Highway 101 closed during rush hour. Tens of thousands stuck in traffic. And wait. And wait. And wait. Until he gives up or jumps.
What do you do?
Tell the fucker to hurry up and jump.
