It's called the right of free speech.

WTF - over....

Well, no, actually you can't. The First Amendment means that they can't throw you in jail for expressing your opinion. Doesn't say anything about your employer suspending or firing you for what you say.

And let's think about this hypothetical. This guy is on his shift, and they respond to a "person in distress", and it's an OD. The addict dies as they're pulling up, and they can't revive him. What do you think happens when the next of kin finds out that this guy was first on the scene, and their phone starts ringing off the hook with calls from ambulance chasers?

The department can't let it slide. They're opening themselves up to liability if they don't do something.

Point well taken Mike, forgot we're also in a very "litigant" society as well.
