You’re wrong.
Nope. Because in that case you would understand what position these doctors were in or you allowed someone to suffer and die.
So, you do not believe in the rule of law?
I do, but I also understand that in much law there are seldom any true absolutes.
I do understand the position these doctors were in. It was their responibility to provide medical care to their patients. It was not their responsibility to kill them.
If you had ever suffered a moment in your life, you would understand the position the patients were in.
If you had ever been worthy of anyone’s trust, you would understand that the doctors broke the trust that was placed in them when they murdered the patients they had sworn to protect.
Murder is truly and absolutely illegal.
Injecting someone with morphine or some other drug with the INTENT to cause their death is MURDER, that is an ABSOLUTE.
Ah, so if the United States still maintained the alert sites it once did, so that armed aircraft could be launched instantly, and a pilot would have been available to shoot down the second aircraft before it could have crashed into the WTC, he would be a murderer?
The term "jumping the shark" now comes to mind.
I wish I could live in such a black and white world. Unfortunately, reality in this one is not so kind.
It still never ceases to amaze me that there are people running around on the loose who openly advocate murder. I keep waiting for the catch, or the punch line.
“I wish someone would investigate how often this occurs during normal circumstances.”
At most hospitals, the looting is usually done by the business office, not NOLA free lance looters.
;-)
Your avoiding the issue comes to mind.
People like that have something wrong with them.
So tell us, would the pilot be a murderer?
If you don’t understand what I wrote, try reading it again. If the problem is that you don’t know what murder is, or you really don’t know that it’s wrong, you need more help than a stranger on the Internet can provide.
You are just avoiding the question.
Some people just never make that connection to the rest of humanity. I think it has to be made in early childhood, or not at all. If the connection is never made, the moral code that normal people live by doesn’t make any sense to them. They try to make sense of it using the only thing they know, utilitarianism. Because to them, people and animals are mere objects to be utilized. It’s sad.
You want to judge the actions of these doctors while you sit in your air conditioned house with food in the refrigerator, clean water from the faucets, and emergency services a phone call away? Sometimes life is not all neat and tidy.
IIRC; another hospital in the area offered to assist in evacuating the patients at Memorial Medical Center. The administrators declined the assistance.
Do you think the patients were better off murdered or should they have taken the offer to evacuate?
You might as well ask me what color underwear I have on. It’s just as relevent as all the other points you’ve used in your feeble attempt to derail the thread. And you’ll get the same answer to that question as you get to your other question. None.
Murder is wrong. Try to stay on topic.
