Firefighters watch house burn down, and let pets die

[Sandman]

No more comparing this to something. The bottom line is that when you pay for a service you benefit from it, if you don't pay in then you don't benefit. That simple.

These guys at the very least should have saved the pets, pegged the guy for gas costs, and let the house burn down. Those of you who felt sorry the guy are pathetic. The same goes for red cross and other organizations that help other countries. Seriously guys, let's fix our own problems before trying to take on everyone else's.

Torque's car insurance analogy makes perfect sense. Why should the lady who totalled my car, who hasn't been paying for insurance get off easy when I, who have been paying high insurance because of the stereotype against teenage boy drivers, have been paying outrageous rates just to keep a decent car?

As I said, I don't feel bad for that guy one bit, although it would have at least been courteous to save the pets.

they're not stereotypes.

they're based on real statistics.

And stereotypes are based on facts lol

You could say the same about black people and chicken.

its only because it tastes good and its cheap.

Thats the only reason the assocation came about.

Go look up statistics from the gov of USA ( should be available considering I can get them from Statistics Canada for free...).

You'll see that people between age of license and 25 have the highest collision rates.

And more males than females in that age group have collisions.

Okay well can you prove what I said is wrong?

Okay so that's stereotyping everyone in that group that they are all the same. Is one person the same as another? Then how is that not stereotyping?

Yes they are stereotyping BUT insurance rates are based n statistics. Younger people aren't as experienced as older drivers therefore they are more likely to get into an accident. Then males drive more aggressively than women, thou I don't completely agree with that.

This is also why there are things like good driver discounts, you're not being the stereotype.
