A legal argument is not a moral one. No one ever appeals to the law in these kinds of conversations, that’s just leading to an easy debunking. Just take India’s reverence for cows, they’re considered much more important than human lives in nearly every sense.

Also that’s not how criminal negligence works, I’m in no place of responsibility to risk my life to save yours UNLESS I’m registered as an EMT or nurse or something and take that legal responsibility on as my own. You sound like a high schooler that took one Gov class

Dude….. that’s the law in nearly every English speaking country, which I’m assuming by your proper use of English you are from, but maybe I’m wrong.

It’s called “duty to rescue”, nobody has the legal responsibility to save anyone else if it involves endangering themselves. And it should absolutely stay that way, you’re insane if you think otherwise.

In what other possible situation would I have to choose between my cats and neighbors? Seriously?

I have no obligation to risk my life in a fire to save my neighbors. If I choose to save my cats I’m well within my right. That’s the lawful argument which you should be fully aware of based on your previous statements. Also I’m 100% sure most people would choose their pets over a near stranger anyway, but believe what you like

>idk why you got upset and decided to get involved

Nice projection, keep coping kid :)
