hose bureaucratic pukes shouldn't be allowed to “rescue” anyone unless requested by the person being rescued!

Your tune would quickly change if you were caught in a rip out at Piha beach. You’d be jolly glad to see the Surf Lifesavers then.
The Surf Lifesavers in New Zealand are all volunteers, not one of them could be described as “bureaucratic pukes”. I suspect the Surf Lifesavers you have in the United States would be similar to ours.
