Write it down.
Propose a question to the forum, or voice your thoughts on an event.
Be it fictional or real life.
Be it suggestive, invasive, persuasive, or informative.
Put you personal ethical limitations to the test.

What would you do in any of these situations?
Would you sweat it out.
Go with your gut?
Go by the book?

Would you think in rational logical terms, or act on personal emotional involvements?

What are the consequences, who/what is involved?
Is there a right and a wrong to every side and situation?
Who decides?
What is fair, what is unjust.

Bottom line.
What if it happened.
What would you do?


Where do your own personal ethics come into play?
When do you take the law into your own hands?


One of the measures of civilization in a society is to see if its laws derive from ethics or if its ethics (or at least its ethos) derive from laws. Perhaps the more civilized a society the more the latter is true. Another measure is the protection of the vulnerable within such a society, something that is closely related.
