I literally got canceled because I posted about video about hiking up a mountain during a snowstorm in my state. Apparently we're not allowed to do that because we have to think about search and rescue and how they can get hurt if they ever need to come rescue you, like, nigga, if you don't wanna come rescue me then don't work for search and rescue. Stupid ass.
>>2859256Yeah they *have* to go get you, did you truly *have* to be there? All for freedom and you doing your thing, so long as others aren't obligated to act on your behalf. How is this not fair and accountable?
>>2859256sounds like colorado
>>2859263in colorado they add a search and rescue fee for every license i buy so i have already paid the fee? theyre obligated as far as im concerned.
>>2859256There's a difference between rescuing an unlucky tourist and a retarded tourist
>>2859291i thought everyone was equal
Suicide is illegal in the majority of the world.Supporting suicide is also illegal.
>>2859256Sounds to me like you shouldn't have said where you went winter hiking and just left it up to peoples imagination
>>2859308Canada suddenly becomes the top mountaineering destination.
Imagine signing up to do a job only to bitch and whine when you have to do that job. SAR are such pussies.
>>2859263They chose to rescue someone. The fault of their exposure to risk is their own.People who do this sort of dangerous volunteer work aren’t doing it without compensation. They get a narcissistic kick knowing people see them as heros. Not that the side effect of this is bad.
>>2859308Is it as usual where the punishment for a successful attempt is punished by more year in prison than an unsuccessful attempt? Also how many years on average?
I just don't understand, if SAR doesn't like rescuing people, why apply for a job that requires you to rescue people?
>>2859256If you want to hike up a mountain in a snowstorm, do it without telling anyone so nobody has to come and get you
>>2859290>search and rescue fee for every license i buythe what for what?
>>2859413You must contribute to the rescue of morons because they can't pay for it on their own even though they'll get into these situations on their own without asking us
>>2859413hunting and fishing licenses and its 25 cents and per state law cannot charge me for rescue. tell me who is really winning? me who can do whatever i want and get rescued for free or fags scared of going outside because they might get hurt and need rescued
>>2859422>hunting and fishing licensesOh, ok. Makes sense, I think.I thought you needed a going-outside loicense or something, kek.Very European approach, I like it.
>>2859290Except in cases of negligence on the part of the hiker, I don't believe the patient ever gets charged for rescue except for helicopter/ambulance services. I work for the feds and in my experience everyone who comes to haul your ass out is either a volunteer who wants to be there, or an employee who is making $70/hour overtime and is secretly hoping you'll limp slower.>>2859424I too think it's a nice idea, but I wonder how it works in practice. Like you just wave your fishing license at the helicopter pilot as you're being loaded on?If the permit is about to expire, I'd be tempted to just climb the highest mountain I possibly can, then call for a life-flight just to save the trouble of hiking down. Do this once a year.
>>2859256I am sorry for the injustice, but anyone who posts videos of themselves outdoors deserves to suffer.
>>2859256Canceled in what way? Some old bitch whined on facebook?
>>2859424>Very European approachIn many places on the european continent you have to pay for specialistic rescue such as on mountains and in caves, as it should be, and it's extra expensive if it involves a helicopter which it usually does.
>>2859357At one point in time the punishment for attempted suicide was death.
>>2859298Nope, and never have been.>but muh all men are created equaland they cease being equal the moment they take their first breaths.
>>2859256I agree...there needs to be some kind of paperwork you can do that relieves S&R from having to look for you if you ever go "missing"...save a whole lot of tax payer dollars
>>2859764what exactly do you want our search and rescue heros to do if they dont go out and be the big hero and save the day? just lay them off or what?
>>2859766yup, go get a job with the coast guard...no ones entitled employment
