And one wonders if how they would handle a fire at their firehouse. . .would they stand by and wait for a 911 call to their location before they would fight the fire? What about a fireman collapsing and needing help. . .would the EMT in house not act until dispatched?

Serious question.

If a 911 call is the only time they can help Joe Citizen, then they, to be fair, MUST wait for a 911 call to fight a fire in their firehouse or provide medical aid to a firefighter.

Then I see what city it happened in.

Yes. We are losing the old-fashioned idea of simply helping a fellow human in distress. The law, you know.
