It's tough to come up with some better examples for me. I see your point. Every example seems to have seriously charged aspects (sexism, racism, violence, etc.) I just react negatively when people use emotionally charged examples in a discussion.

I'm not so sure it was a logical explanation of anything other than your thought process. Just because there were previous examples where things were legal but unethical does not mean it applies here.

Still, I'm glad we worked through this. I've learned from it. Didn't mean to sound as critical as I came off -- if it bothered you, my apologies, that wasn't my intention.

Thanks to both of you guys for the interesting exercise in thought.
