So you believe in letting you family die and the rest just so you do not have to decide who lives and dies to protect one or the other? So if asked to kill 1 child in a school of 1000 to save 999 of the rest or all 1000 would die you would permit all 1000 to die?
You dont have the right to choices like that, sometimes they are pushed upon you and you have no choice but to make choices that will affect the lives of many. doctors are faced with it alot. Imagine having to spend the time to save a man who murder and rapes children and by having to spend the time on him a child has to die because you did not have the time to do both but statistically the man had the greatest chance of survival? You choose the easy way out but what if easy it not there. Simple your wife is having a baby they can save her or the baby and she is unable to answere, who lives who dies its up to you!
See but you miss the point people are faced with these choices all the time and if the choice is not made then both die. what is more fucked up, all die or some live? Its fucked up that a choice like this could come up but... Poor people need food and shelter and the only way to free up the money for them is to stop support of those on death row, do we allow death row people to live or do we care for the poor?
