People don't understand how fast fire and smoke spread. There is a good chance the police saved that man's life. Is that their place? Maybe not.

I personally knew a kid in high school who escaped a fire and then died when he went back in to save a family member.

A man's duty is to the future of his offspring - no matter the cost.

Halt that effort, and you deserve to die.

I tend to agree. The man should be allowed to risk his life, even in the event of almost certain death.

Yeah seems like you should always have the right to risk your life to try to save your children. They shouldn’t be able to decide the risk is too high for you.

There is a good chance the police saved that man's life.

His role and his right as a man was to protect his family, the cop took that away from. He was not a dumb kid or an overly emotional woman, he was a man doing what should be expected of him. No justification for stopping him can ever be enough.
