Morality Test
Not sure if this has been posted before, (probably has) but what the hell, I think it deserves another shot.

Where do you stand morally?

This test only has one question, but it's a very important one. By giving an honest answer, you will discover where you stand morally. The test featues an unlikely, completely fictional situation in which you will have to make a decision. Remember that your answer needs to be honest, yet spontaneous. Please scroll down slowly and give due consideration to each line.

THE SITUATION

You are in New Orleans. There is chaos all around you caused
by a hurricane with severe flooding. This is a flood of biblical
proportions.

You are a photo journalist working for a major newspaper, and
you're caught in the middle of this epic disaster. The situation is nearly hopeless. You're trying to shoot career-making photos.

There are houses and people swirling around you, some disappearing under the water. Nature is unleashing all of its destructive fury.

THE TEST

Suddenly you see a man in the water. He is fighting for his life, trying not to be taken down with the debris. You move closer. Somehow the man looks familiar. You suddenly realize who it is.


It's the President - George W. Bush. At the same time you notice that the raging waters are about to take him under forever. You have two options -

You can save the life of the President, or you can shoot a dramatic Pulitzer Prize winning photo, documenting the death of one of the world's most famous men.

THE QUESTION

Here's the question, and please give an honest answer.....













Would you select high contrast color film, or would you go with the classic simplicity of black and white?

8. But its based on this...
Bush is what, over 53? he has had 53 yrs of life, the average soldier at fighting/dying in iraq is what, 25 or so? He has lived twice as long as most of the troops that have died, or are still serving...he has lead a long enough life, a lot don't get to experience life like GWB, so i say, let him go...

9. I'd get an easel and necessary supplies and do an oil painting,
It takes longer, but it's worth it in this case.

11. That's not too smart.
Unless it's a real cheap camera. No sense wasting a good one on something like him.
