Does inaction make you a killer? (Details )

Asked by MrGrimm888 (19031points) August 10th, 2016

(Hypothetically )If you’re on a dock ,alone. You see a person( a stranger ) that seems to be drowning about 10 feet from the dock. There is a life ring, or floatation device on the dock.

If you don’t throw the life ring ,or floatation device to them , and they drown, does that make you somehow responsible?

Even though you had nothing to do with the circumstances of that person’s predicament?
