I've slammed on my brakes before to avoid hitting an animal. What's so controversial about that?
- In this hypothetical situation, you don't have enough time to stop. 65 mph down the hwy, 30 yards in front of you. One of you has to go. Who's it gonna be?
  Or we can go back to the other example... You would let your child suffer and die from a heart condition instead of giving them a chance to survive, and all that's needed is the life of a single pig. Keep in mind, pigs live about 15-20 and people live generally 65+ years. So point blank, would you trade your kid's life for that of a pig's?
  
  Can't wait to see their answer!
  
  I'm not gonna engage in dumb hypothetical with strangers on the internet.
  
  Lol. You're so fucking delusional. You've been engaging up until I asked for a point blank answer. You'd either have to lie and continue to look like the idiot you are, or you'd have to admit you were mistaken in your beliefs.
  
  Or, alternatively, I know it's hard to believe, but this is devolved into people calling me a moron, and I have better things to do with my time.
  
  There you go engaging again.
  
  "How dare you make a valid argument, I'm just going to end the conversation instead of giving any sort of reasonable ground at all. I'm either right or just engaging in a stupid conversation!"
