So the term refers to a man who gets stabbed or shot and his friends drop him off at the ER and leave. Interesting 🤔 I need to ask my nurse friends about this


Sounds like some leftover slang from the late 80s.


But whatever you call it, if you've been shot or stabbed, you actually have a better chance at surviving if somebody drives you there immediately than to wait for an ambulance.

Funny enough story is when I got hit up first thing the EMT cac asked me while I was laying down in the back of the ambulance bleeding to death was...

"hey man, I'm not gonna have to come back over here tonight am I"?:beli:

Automatically assumed it was some gang/street shyt. so its not that Smiley story isn't out the realm of possibility. I remember that documentary of the young Chicago breh basketball star that got shot over some teenage beef and they literally left breh to bleed to death Ben Wilson was his name got shot at 12:30 paramedics didn't arrive til 1:27 then when he got to the hospital they left him in a hallway and he just bleed to death. It really sucks being a black man in America the more I think about it

OP I doubted you before but you posted proof. I’m kinda 50/50 about if it’s racist or not.

My first OD was similar to this. Except I wasn’t dropped off. Friends called 911, put me on the porch, and ran.

I can easily see that happening at an emergency room entrance. Plenty of dope shooting/ meth smoking cacs pull shyt like that.

I’m an ICU nurse and I have heard mostly white nurses with some black nurses say this.

English is my fourth language so I really didn’t get it at the time.
