they never covered this in class, they really should.
i suppose if you're having a heart attack, and i respond to the scene, i'd prefer you told me. if you're unconscious, i'm taking it off of your person and out of reach and calling dispatch.
if the patient were conscious, i'd keep my wits about me and ask for it. sorry, but if you slip into an altered mental state and get combative beyond your reasoning and comprehension, i'd rather have to deal with fists, and not a handgun.
if i were on the other side i suppose i'd declare it as well, and expect to be disarmed if i were unconscious, hopefully by somebody that knows what they're doing.
