Well good for you. I'm sure you have them in your vehicle just in case you see someone jump into a flowing river.
As for me, I know of no one in my vast circle of friends and acquaintances, which includes active LEO,s, who have such items in their vehicles, just in case they may see someone jump into a flowing river.......
Never even suggested they should jump in.
Then what do you suggest they do when their squad car isn't equipped with ropes, floats, grab bars and inflatable rafts just in case a chased suspect jumps into a fast flowing river?
Give it up dude, you're flimsy argument is sinking faster than a drowning junkie in a river.........
No. I have them in case I need them for any number of things. Pulling another car out of ditch, tying something on to the car, moving something out of the way, holding something back. If you do not carry a rope that is your choice. Same as if you do not carry a first aid kit or a fire extinguisher or a spare tire.

I am sure your friends are just like you.

I would suggest that they get out the way of the people who had such things and were willing to help but were told by the police not to do so that the man was not in any danger of drowning.

Your attempt to protect the incompetent from being forced to face the fact their their lack of anything that resembled thought resulted in the death of another human is truly heroic.
