You’d be saving no one, or no animal, if the house was engulfed in flames.
If the fire fighters won’t go in without the protection they have on, anyone one who goes in unprotected is committing suicide.
No way unprotected human flesh can handle those temperatures while doing a search for an animal who is likely hiding.
If it collapses on you, you’d be buried in a pile of burning rubble. Not much of a favor to your family and the animals would still be gone. Then your family would have to deal with losing you as well.
And then what? The police and firefighters get condemned for not doing enough to save you from yourself?
It’s a lose/lose situation for them.
I think it is impossible for people who believe that humans are different from, and more important than, animals to have a reasoned discussion with people who believe they are precisely the same.
