I mean, you'd kill the attacker, but it sounds like a moral judgment to stop the attack. > I would like everyone to consider the immense amount of data we > scramble to find in order to "judge" a person or an action. > > I would then like everyone to consider, if we took all that work that > judging people takes up, and put it into merely acting, wouldn't we be > better off. > > Is stealing wrong? > > I watched a kid steal my basketball once.
