for some reason no one else decided to help either

You know this guy must be aware of the implications of working in a gym with female members. He has to be careful because he knows that if he even glances at a female member while she is working out he'd get reported. Then someone tells him, the only employee, a male, to go into the women's restroom? No can do, ma'am. Once he does that he can be charged with anything since there is nothing to prove his innocence.

It's a terrible thing that a woman died in this situation. But now women are getting what they wan (for men to be afraid of women) and it backfired.

Also, if he is responsible for her death for not calling 911 then the girl who knew CPR and did nothing should also carry blame.

I am curious, other than calling for emergency services what would a staff member be required to do in this situation? Is he obliged to perform first aid/CPR on a customer? Is it a realistic expectation?

WHEREBY privileged men are responsible for the wellbeing of all women (Man Up Act c.2011),

and WHEREBY DRONE #574A394 was determined to be the nearest male to the random occurrence of a death of a woman,

THEREFORE it is amply demonstrated that DRONE #574A394 is liable through gross negligence for for not immediately employing his privilege powers of psychic knowledge, medical response knowledge, and superspeed to counteract the anuerism.

This case will now proceed to the criminal courts to investigate the possibility of the illegal use of male privilege powers to cause the aneurism in the first place, and, when found guilty, DRONE #574A394 shall be sent to the nearest maximum security rape dungeon for rehabilitation.

Unfortunately, as we continue to demonize men over every little thing, we will see more and more cases like this. Some men will be too afraid to take action for fear of being strung up by their balls at a later date, and it will cost women their lives.

So none of the women bothered helping her?

And now the family is blaming the guy?

This is what Feminism looks like.

“I want to know why no one helped her!” Hamlin’s mother, Jeanine, 52, said tearfully last week in her Central Islip home. "

Because the male sex has been demonized to the point where many are afraid to do anything that could be seen as overstepping their boundaries.

Of course the woman who was mere feet from her when the incident occurred is completely off the hook for not helping or calling 911 the very instance it happened. Women have literally zero societal responsibility. It's sickening.

Fucking ridiculous.

Emergency! Run to man! Man suppose to make it all better. (Man oppress woman - but useful as cannon fodder, sperm dispenser, and when SHTF).

There's absolutely no justification for this. The woman who found her was every bit as physically capable of saving this woman, or not saving her. If you don't know what the fuck you're doing, you shouldn't be trying to resuscitate anyone. Best to call 911, and you don't need to fucking run to the nearest male to do that.

If Planet Fitness doesn't help with this man's defense, I'm boycotting them - and you should too.

When has anyone ever been sued for going into a women's bathroom to do their job?

Collective82 · 2013-06-25T20:18:09+00:00

I understand he should've called 911 first however the women who was present at the scene should've done that before getting him. She is more to blame than anyone and I hope they let him off and nail her for it. Also unless she's having a heart attack or heart has stopped. Do not defib!!!! You will kill them. Also CPR should not have been performed either. CPR is not a cure all.

WHAT THE EVER LOVING ALL HOLY FUCK!

OH MY FUCKING GOD! I am literally shaking. I'm that fucking furious. This is a perfect example of the kind of BULLSHIT FUCKING CULTURE we live in. This guy is guilty of doing NOTHING OTHER THAN EXACTLY WHAT HE WAS TAUGHT!

“He could have simply called 911! It’s baffling to me.”

SAYS THE FUCKING WOMAN WHO IN 2013 WAS UNABLE TO FIND A FUCKING CELLPHONE ABSOLUTELY ANYWHERE OR PICK UP THE ONE SURELY SITTING JUST FEET FROM HER AS SHE SPOKE TO THIS GUY.

WHAT THE FUCK?

I wouldn't be this furious if it was just the gym being sued, I mean it's grimy but it's common enough. But where the fuck do they get off suing this guy AND USING STATEMENTS MADE BY THE PERSON WHO ACTUALLY FOUND THIS WOMAN AGAINST HIM.

Holy fucking god.

This is just fucking ridiculous.

I hate this culture.
