It seems like you ' d like to keep blindly spouting rhetoric , so there ' s no point continuing this discussion . <| sep |> you can . In war , in self defense , in assisting a suicide , for example . You might even murder but still be , on balance , a good person . I have known a few people I ' d say that of , believe it or not . But in none of the murders would I say the act of killing was good . Why not ? Murder goes against empathy . It undermines society . It harms many people , particularly the person whose life is taken , and with it ends all of their hopes and dreams . It increases the amount of harm and suffering while decreasing the amount of wellbeing and security . who do you want to kill and why ? <| sep |> The reason for the discrepancies is that America doesn ' t implement these kinds of policies that everyone else in the developed world has . Policies come first , then the results of those policies . That ' s how basic causality works . Oh , and grow some balls , son .
