Who should survive?

There was a huge storm this morning where it crippled a boat with ten passengers on it. Knowing that only five people can be on the lifeboat and I have to decide which people will be gaurenteed to survive and the others will have to fight alone. First i think that Jean Garcia, the three month old healthy baby should go on the boat to survive because she is still so young and deserved to have a good long life ahead of her. I also think that Dr. Gonzalaz the sixty six year old doctor should be put on the boat because of his past health issues. It would be best if he was kept safe on the island and wasnt by himself. Mrs. Dane is another person I would keep safe on the island because of her having diabetes and being obese so that alone gives her more health risks along with her issues. I would keep her husband Mr. Dane and their son Bobby because they are a family and need to stick together and not be seperated. Those are the five people i would keep on the island and have the chance to survive if i had to decide.

Is murder justifilable?

I think murder should never be an option unless they are on the death penalty for killing someone else. No one should be killed for no reason. The only reason that someone should be murdered is if they have ever killed someone else because what goes around comes around. Killing someone should never be went happens because no one innocent deserves to be killed. If you have some case where a person comes in and hurts your loved ones and you shoot them or if you are in a fight and just using self defense then you will be better off but murder is still never a good result. Tou will or may be put on death penalty and you will be the one ending up in the spot of being murdered, Just dont kill people for no reason, this is my opinion on it.
