Your example is irrelevent. These patients weren’t killed to save the lives of a greater number of people. If you want a relevent hypothetical example from 9/11, here’s one a little closer to this situation. Should the firemen going into the burning buildings have brought with them lethal injections, for any victims they couldn’t save?

No, but they may have been given doses of a drug to make them comfortable, and that may have hastened their deaths. Sorry, but that is compassion.

And if those fireman had made it into the Windows On The World restaurant and knew there was no way down again, would it matter if they passed out cyanide?
