And you come on a forum to complain about said incident.

Ahhhh, yeah.
I heard about it about thirty minutes after it had happened and I know the old guy in question.

Alot of diabetic emergencies mimic alcohol intoxication to the smell of acetone on the breath...the trick is to asses the LOC of the PT while doing a size-up
then a finger stick

BUT the previous statement is useless in this sitrep, one has to be calm and observant

If true, that prospect would be long gone from us.

Its yet another of many reasons to prospect and not just hand out colors.

What comes around, goes around. He'll get his. Good to hear from some patches that this is unacceptable. I hope the old timer is ok.

I've never approved of people name dropping MC names on this forum. I wouldn't want it done to my MC so I don't do it to others. (Not that anyone would need to seek my approval of it anyways,just my feelings on the matter of name dropping)

I have seen a lot of diabetics drink way more than they should, get trashed and then have a diabetic episode because their sugar spikes up. If that was the case, you reap what you sow. You're responsible for you and when you know that drinking can cause that type of reaction, you got no one to blame but yourself for letting it get out of hand and getting your *** whooped.

I'm not condoning what happened but it seems just as cowardice (as those that stood by and did nothing) to hear about it 30 minutes after the fact, claim to know the man personally, name drop the supposed club and bash on their prospect by slamming them on this forum but not have the ***** to stick up for your friend and approach the club that supposedly did this and get their side of the issue.

Wondering why this was in the BS forum. Also wondering what a prospect was doing out by himself? That should not be.
