America, Please Don't Go Here...

The United Kingdom has become the land of politically correct.  Tragic incidents like this one appear in the news there almost daily.  In this case a little girl trapped underwater in a car is left there for almost two hours, even though potential rescuers were on the scene.  Why?  Because safety regulations forbade anyone other than a specialist rescue team from entering the water.  Nobody on the scene even tried to enter the water. 

They'd all been emasculated by the pervasive political correctness in the U.K. today.

I'd really hate to see America go this route.

Since the story linked above was posted, the little girl has died...
