We don’t ask whether the people inside ‘deserve’ to be rescued

We don’t ask whether the people inside ‘deserve’ to be rescued

“When we respond to a call that a house is on fire we don’t ask whether the people inside ‘deserve’ to be rescued, or whether they will contribute to society in the future. We go in because they are in danger and we save lives – we are firefighters; that is what we do.

I don’t see why saving people who are drowning in the Mediterranean should be any different. A basic human reaction is to help those in need.” – Leoni Munslow, Firefighter
