The Epitome of Stupid

This is what pisses me off. I'm a paramedic and ER nurse. Here this man brought a gunshot victim, not to an emergency room, not to a doctor's office, not even to a police station, but to a TV station! Are you kidding me? Why do people do such ridiculous things? Pray tell, what exactly was the man expecting the news station to do? Film her bleeding? According to the report, he was going to "turn himself in" to the police. With that ostensible reasoning, to whom was he planning to speak at the police station - oh wait, NEWS STATION?!
Really? The news? If he was the perpetrator of the shooting, then not only should he be charged with that but also with felony stupidity.
It drives me up an Everest-sized wall when people load the sick and injured into their car and proceed to anywhere BUT where they need to go. I've picked up patients who were IN A CAR but the driver decided that instead of tootling on down to the hospital, they would stop at the Burger King, the gas station, their friend's house, the bank, the car wash, the convenience store or any other random freaking location to decide to call 911. You're in a car! With gas! Why can't you just drive your friend to the ER? WTF? Now you want to get on the news! Seriously? Again, I officially volunteer to be the state euthanasist.
