If you answered no, you're a liar.

If you answered yes, you're a hypocrite.
Let's talk about hypothetical clichés.
What if you needed to kill a man to save your loved one? Would yo do it?
What does that imply? Are not all people equal? What makes this scenario different than that of an animal? If it were a black guy you kill could I accuse you of racism?
