They're Both Drowning and You Can Save Only One -- Your Dog or a Stranger?

[conv3rsion]

ITT a bunch of people who don't have or like dogs vs a bunch of people who have and like dogs.

exactly.

i love how all the people who don't have dogs are getting all high and mighty about the people who would save their own dog over a stranger.

Your dog is your family member, he would save you over his own life.

The poll is pretty obvious. 2/3 of people have dogs and would save them, 1/3 of people don't have dogs and are offended.

 

[JoseArmando]

The dog has clearly won this. My work is done here.

FYI: I don't really have a dog but I love trolling.

I would save my dogs life over a stranger simply because he would save my life over a stranger. Thats how a close, loving family operates. My dog has put herself in immediate danger to protect me more times than I can count. If I was getting mugged, raped and beaten on the street my dog would fight to the death to protect me, where as that dumbass drowning human would probably just stand there and watch until the police show up 30 minutes later to call the coroner and haul my carcass off the street. Fuck people.

I'd be pretty bummed, to say the least, if one of you motherfuckers saved a dog while my brother or my wife drowned.

I'm a dog lover, lived with them all of my life...but this is no contest.

 

[DanGlobalizer]

If stranger was a child, the child.
If stranger was some random adult, MY dog.
If not MY dog, the stranger.

^ This

Though, if the stranger were a child, you'd probably have enough strength to save both your dog and the strange child

 

[buckeyefan]

My dog vs stranger = dog

My dog vs child = Child ( would be tough , probably try for both )

dog vs stranger = stranger

lol "Fuck people."

What a sad, miserable and pathetic little life you must live.

Answer this. If you are the person drowning and it is my dog in there with you, when I tell you "Hey pal, fuck you, that's my dog." you respond with "Oh, okay dude, no problem." ? And same goes for a family member. If I stood there and watched your mother drown from 10 feet away, because I was concerned about my dog, you hold no resentment for me and understand completely? Yeah, go ahead, lie to me and say you wouldn't think I was a sociopath. Go outside and make some friends. Preferably of the human persuasion.

Without hesitation my dog would lay down it's own life to save us, especially my girlfriend to whom it is incredibly loyal and protective.

I can't say the same about a stranger.

I would accept responsibility for not ever learning how to fucking swim.

HAHAHAHAHA

 

[DewChugr]

I'd save my dog. He's small and I'm not that good of a swimmer. If I tried to save a struggling adult we'd both drown. Which one do you have a better chance of saving?

What if it were Bush and Obama or Bill Gates and a homeless person or a white, asian and black man, then what would you do?

 

[Roundabout]

Can we change the question to Who Would you Save Drowning? TurboLapp or Barman?

 

[sapphirescales]

I'd be fucking pissed if someone decided to save their dog over my mother, but deep down I really couldn't blame them for their decision. Why the fuck should they care about my mother?

If both my dog and I were drowning, I'd want the "stranger" to save my dog. Though I doubt anyone would even try to help either one of us. People are assholes that don't care about anyone but themselves.

I'd save my dog over a stranger even if it wasn't my dog. Animals are innocent and helpless. If the human is dumb enough to go out on a boat or close to water without knowing how to swim, they deserve to die. I would never risk my life to save some dumbass like that, but I'd sure as hell risk my life to save my dog.

Yeah its so sad and pathetic, jesus I just wish I could swim out somewhere and drown... Wait who is this fuckwad and his dog, get away from me I'm trying to die out here!

I have plenty of great friends, and I'd save them over my dog any day, but if you're out there drowning you better latch on to my dog because thats the only way I'm risking my life to save yours. You can call me a sociopath if you want, but the only people I risk my life for are family and friends and my dog is family.

 

[guerilla]

No contest. Barman is going glug glug glug. Turbo is like family.

 

[pat J]

If Barman was drowning, only superman could save him.

 

[mGrunin]

No you don't think of that, but you are aware of it.

You KNOW that human life is more valuable than animal's no matter how much you love your pet.

The reason why I listed those reasons is because lyfromdp and others were arguing the dog's life is just as valuable as human's.

What if instead of your dog the animal drowning was your kid's guinea pig? This is getting ridiculous...

I'll put the guinea pig in my pocket and then save the stranger. Though, not sure how much help my 130lb frame can provide.

Anyhow, if I saw my dog and a stranger drowning, I would go for my dog first. As someone mentioned, I don't see my dog as a dog, but as a family member. I place my family in front of a stranger.

 

[ly2 from WF]

Wow, the dog is dominating in epic fashion.

 

[hectic]

Dogs won't sue you for pain and suffering because they sprained something when you rescued them.

 

[zingo]

I actually risked my own life to save my dog not to long ago.. I just did it, was like shit went in slow motion.. then after I did I was like "that could have kill you" and was freaked out for the rest of the day.

My dog or stranger?? that is a fucking easy question..
