Are you as moral as you think you are?

[YmirGF]

Apologies, in advance, but this one made me laugh. I could see where it was heading as the setup grows but I wasn't expecting the ending.




Are you as moral as you think you are?

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 features an unlikely, completely fictional situation in which you will have to make a decision.

Only you will know the results, so remember that your answer needs to be honest.


THE SITUATION:


You are in Florida , Miami to be specific.

There is chaos all around you caused by a hurricane with severe flooding.

This is a flood of biblical proportions.

You are a photojournalist 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 Barack Obama!

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 Barack Obama or you can shoot a dramatic Pulitzer Prize winning photo, documenting the death of one of the world's most powerful socialist men hell bent on the destruction of America .







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[FONT=&quot]?[/FONT]

 

[Alceste]

I'd go with the high resolution colour photo. You can always convert to B/W in photoshop.

Yep. I also thought that if, for some unknown reason, I tried to save him he might try to drag me down with him. Um... no, just NO.

 

[Saint Frankenstein]

Tasteless, but funny.

Good choice. :yes:

 

[YmirGF]

Tasteless, but funny.

I get that, a lot. Whatever it takes to get a laugh, I say.

Of course I'd save the life of a decent conservative (in the old sense) President Obama who is trying to hold the country together against the forces of the extremist right wingers who are trying to destroy America by stuffing us back to their imaginary past (you know, like some in other places in the world) at the behest of the real owners of America, the super rich and the corporations who are people.

Now if it were one of the kleptocrats and wingnuts, I might think about it some more and find it a bit harder to intervene.

 

[Revoltingest]

I would do everything possible to save America from....

....becoming president.

Thanks for the laugh. I needed that.

 

[sun rise]

Thanks for the laugh. I needed that.

Actually I was quite serious about President Obama and the right-wing attempt to destroy what America is all about.

 

[Revoltingest]

I think that's why it's so funny.

 

[dust1n]

I'm sure the prize for saving the president would be much greater than getting an excellent photograph of him.

I take it that the socialist is well-known and is placed at the opposite side in relation to Obama?

Difficult decision. Socialists in America are an endangered species, and to find one that is hell bent on the destruction of America would be a historical event. The Pulitzer would be only the start of it.

Besides, Obama is looking more and more like GWB all the time.

I hope that's a political comment, or you seriously need to change them spectacles.

Oh, yeah?
Stare at this long enuf....

 

[Wirey]

Now that's creepy!
