Voted "no" because I view nationality as such a small factor in the decision that it'd probably only sway me in a situation where all things weighed equally (including a myriad of other factors). And, since such is a very likely impossibility (even within the construct of this impossible hypothetical), I concluded I could safely vote the way I did.
For example, and assuming the construct of the hypo where I'd have to choose one person's life, over another, here is an unexhaustive list of factors I'd consider before nationality in no particular order:
- Positive skills/education that can be utilized for the public good (e.g. is the non-citizen a doctor, scientist, etc.).
- age (e.g. I'd save a 20 year old non-citizen's life over a 75 year old American life all things being equal)
- whether the person had kids
- whether the person had a criminal record that contained crimes against children or crimes of moral terpitude (and the other didn't)
- whether the person was a Phillies/Eagles/Flyers fan
