Ambulancemen ‘decided dying man not worth saving’

A police source, who asked not to be named, said that the ambulancemen were then heard discussing Mr Baker and saying “words to the effect that he was not worth saving”.

At least here in the States we wait for the insurance company.

They just want us to think they're Brits. I have it on good authority they live in Mississippi.

Tnagentially, in travels and discussions with Europeans mostly (altho' not exclusively), I have often heard folks mention/assert how demonstratably nationalistic Americans are. I challenged that assertion by one Norwegian by noting how many Norse houses, boats, etc. had Norwegians flags flying as opposed to incidence in America. (Both he & I have spent significant amounts of time in each other's nation.)

Probably a frantic attempt by the Norwegians to avoid being assimilated by the EU Borg.

Then I should be flying the flag of St George.... but that would probably confuse more folks
