My comments on ASP class (5/7)

We discussed order of the people who need to rescue. In our group,
we should rescue the children at first because children have possibilities
in the future than others. Also, their weight is more light than adults so,
we can rescue two children together and it is meaningful to save two liefs.
Next, we have to rescue old person because they can not live long in the water.
Third, we should rescue young woman of model because she may be slender
and she can not stand up in the water. Forth, we should rescue alcoholic
because he may panic and influence others by making noise. The last person
to rescue is swimmer because she can survive by herself or soldier because he
has big power and always takes exercise. When I heard the critical thinking
which we save children at first and soldier next, I thought the way of thinking
is incredible in my mind. I think only age, sex and strong about a first priority,
but I understand person who know the way of using the rope to help people.
Also, we discussed the difference of culture in rescuing the people. In America,
people will rescue lady first. In China, oldest people are thought important.
I felt the what each countries focus on was different .
We discussed the priority if AK members need to rescue. We thought that
we should be lady first, "janken" is fair to decide the order of people and
everyone are rescued or die.
In common, we think that we should rescue woman because they are weak
than men. However, women can more survive than men in the water.
I surprised and disappointed at the fact.
Through the discussion, I notice that age, job, sex, background and morality
are not so important to decide the order. In thinking about life, to decide
which answer is correct is very difficult, so "janken" or consultation without
thinking nothing may be fair to everyone.
