Apologies for sounding harsh, but my animals - my babies - are more important to me than you are.

I can't believe I'm reading this statement. I have had pets, (dogs and cats) my entire life, cried and grieved for them when they died. But I would NEVER have put one of them above a decent human life.

And I apologize for sounding harsh, but can you imagine if the rescue workers had to save every pet of every person in distress? I'm sure when it came down to it, a blanket decision had to be made, save as many humans, or make accommodations for the pets, and maybe save less people.

Boy, are you in for an awakening on this thread.

Thank you for your support. You, I and one or two others are the only ones who have that perspective.

All the rest are acting as knee-jerk liberals, letting their emotions for animals override what should be common sense.
