Question 4 — Clydesdale Horse or Political Prisioner?
Let us assume a fully grown, completely healthy Clydesdale horse has his hooves shackled to the ground while his head is held in place with thick rope. He is conscious and standing upright, but completely immobile. And let us assume that—for some reason—every political prisoner on earth (as cited by Amnesty International) will be released from captivity if you can kick this horse to death in less than twenty minutes. You are allowed to wear steel-toed boots.
Would you attempt to do this?
NO. If someone else had to do it, I might, MIGHT, say yes, but even then I don’t think so. I guess this means that I am putting the needs of one animal over that of many many humans, but I just couldn’t do it. Even if I had the physical ability and strength, which I doubt, I wouldn’t be able to.
My main argument though, is in regards to the actual evil political prisoners. There are some in capitivity who deserve to be there. The US doesn’t release their prisioners to get back Americans.
I don’t negotiate with these Horse Killing Terrorists!
