You could put down the camera and help. The camera will continue recording.

Or I could live with filming anything is illegal, we're way too caught up, on video clips. We bitch and moan more about videos of bar sluts, with fist fighting daughters than we are about crimes politicians in Washington commit on an ongoing daily basis.

The burn victim supposedly told the dog to get help. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/04/23/dog-leads-alaska-state-tr_n_549096.html You would think the K9 would have had the intelligence to go to the fire dept. as opposed to the donut shop.

Did he say "get help?" or did he say, "get a fireman?" Let's give the dog a break - he probably doesn't speak great english. that, and maybe donuts were on special that night.

The dogs would have stepped on your head on the way out, and just barked at your lifeless body. But only hours later when you were late on their kibble installment.

The number of dumb humans trying to save dogs that ended drowning in the process, only to have the dog out of the water by time someone else discovers the scene. Is far more common than dogs drowning.
