In answer to the first, mine would be no. In considering both questions, my answer would again be no. But in answer to the second question...

that's a bit harder.

Actually I like the forum misplacement in this case. Chit Chat needs some stimulation.

All I was saying is that it would have made people think harder about their morals, i.e. if they're really that strong and that they believe what they are doing is right.

I think a lot more people would have said 'no' to the whole situation if the jail time was added to the original question.

Just food for thought, really. Good thread though. I appreciate that you actually took the time to create a scenario to get people to think even for a few seconds.
