What is this world coming to????? GRAPHIC CONTENT

In Mexico, if you help someone hurt in the street, they will (possibly) hold you liable, so people wait to see if they can drag themselves to the curb, then they'll help them. This world is a sick place.

And all it took was one person to sue a good samaritan.

I woke up one morning to a girl screaming for help, she was involved in a two car accident one block from my home. I ran down to see if I could help. Her and her friends in the truck seemed ok though one was banged up pretty good. The other car was in the ditch, I found a young lady thrown between the two front seats. She was wedged between the two bucket seats with her shoulders and head basicly in the back seat but not touching, so her head was just hanging back in mid-air kinda. From the sound of her breathing it was obvious the angle of her neck was restricting airflow. I jumped in the back seat and picked her head up enough to lay it on my knees so it was level with the rest of her body. You would have thought I had pulled a knife out and killed her, the crowd that had gathered around the car to stare at her was hollering at me to leave her alone or I may get sued. We sat there like that for what seemed like forever (this was 15 miles from any town or ambulance). Her eyes were open but lifeless, just staring back at me, her breathing was gargled and labored. I began to pray over her, not sure if she could hear or see me even though it appeared she was looking right into my eyes. Her breathing became shorter and shorter until it finally stopped.

I followed up on her a couple days later, the medics told me she had massive internal injuries and brain hemoraging. They assured me there was nothing they could have done for her much less me.

All I think about is if she could see in those last moments, I'm glad she left this world seeing someone praying over her instead of a crowd of people gawking at her from the road because they were worried about a law suit.
