You fool.

Now you expanded the problem; is it moral to kill a person responsible for murder, to make a choice to end someone's life?

[-] Katana314@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Yes.

Everyone loves positing moral dilemmas and then leaving them for other people to answer, with a finger poised to their lips ready to say “Interesting” and point out some weak level of hypocrisy.

I’m just gonna answer simply, and correctly: Yes. If someone is a repeated threat to the safety of others and there is any reasonable risk of the justice system failing to incarcerate them, it is better to end their life.

I wouldn’t even make that claim against one-time murderers, but some people go far over the line.

In this case, it is simply a joke

I never took my question seriously, and I would certainly pick the same. In the original dilemma, I would pull the lever.
