There's a couple moral dilemma's I can think of that I thought would be interesting to discuss. A moral dilemma if you don't know is basically a problem where there is no solid right or wrong response. In either A scenario or B scenario, you could be seen as making the right choice or the wrong choice.

To start out with (a classic scenario) Imagine there is a trolley heading towards 5 people, but, A) you can pull a lever to save the 5 people and steer it near 1 person instead, or B) you could do nothing. Would you pull the lever? For acting you are responsible for the death of 1 person, for not acting you allowed 5 people to die.

If that one person is Tobidara I don't have a problem with it. It's morally right to pull the liver to save 5 people

I don't know what if that one person is a baby and the five people are predators.
in ancient tribes...when a invaders predators want to rape woman.. some1 close to her kill her or she kill herself to protect her honor...

or in japan.. warriors prefere to commit sepuku rather then give up to a enemies..

so rule of choosing teh less evil and less cazualities shoult be aplied..

interesting...

personally i would let the trolley hit the 5 people. one i dont believe its my place to decide who lives and who dies. call it fate, call it karma but those 5 people were going to die in the beginning from circumstances that were out of my control, i didnt ask the trolley to head towards them, it was meant to happen. i just so happened to be in the place where i could make a decision, doesnt mean i have too, not my place in this scenario

lastly i dont believe quantity equals quality. i dont know any of these people, i could save five people who were on their way to gang rape a lady in the alley. just because theres more people, doesnt mean they are better than the single person who could be like on his way to feed orphans. so i would just let fate do its thing and not be a cause in that effect

Pretty much how I feel.

Making the direct decision to help 5 people who would've died anyway, by purposefully sacrificing the 1 is a terrifying and difficult choice.

Ok so If you are in the village then you cant cut your own hair.
Only the barber can cut the hair of everyone in the village but then who will cut his hair since he cant so it himself.

He has to get his haircut from someone who doesnt live in the village.
