Haven’t seen that analogy in a long time. I used to debate this with people out of curiosity and was horrified at some peoples insistence that destroying some innocent lives is perfectly fine so long as we got all the actual criminals.
I alway bet they’d change their tune if it was THEIR innocent life.
