    The pet, I love pets. I have lost three dogs and they were a huge part of my life.

    I save my pet over a stranger, yeah. That sounds sick, but if I was in that position it's just what I would do.

    Humans who don't know how to swim do not deserve to live. I save the pet, easily.

    what if he/she's drowning cuz he/she's trapped in his/her car that was ran off the road?

    oh, and Stranger, easily. And i'd shoot down the person that saved his or her pet over a friend or family member of mine simply because he/she didn't know him/her

    Well then if that's the case, it's a totally different story.

    Either way, I try to mind my own business and not try to be a hero. Everyone dies eventually anyways.
