i haven't been in a swimming pol since i left middle school, some 20+ years ago, so even though i can technically swim, i can't say i would have been able to swim today
different people, differnt situations, different times
everyone would have done something different
thats what i was tryingto say in my earlier post... its quite easy to say "they should have" but we dont know the full story... why did the fishermen save the girl with their rods and not wade in?? could both the PCSO's swim? and are all the reports unbiased?? plenty of questions to know the answers to before im gonna point a finger atleast...
they didnt do nothing, they were radioing for backup - admittedly this was as good as noithing, but again, could they swim... if not thats all they could do really as they woul have been submerged...
