I really do not see where death by accident equates to lives deliberately cut short. How can any sane person make this comparison?
Please...be consistent.....the argument has been made that we DO send our soldiers to die...after all, that is the purpose of an armed force; to be put in harm's way.
Nah.....there will never be a common point here. Like I said: "Insanity is defined as......" I am certain you know the rest.
Yes; all life has value. All cessation of life constitutes a loss to someone. John Donne's words come to mind.

You're giving me distinctions in the cause without explaining why you feel that makes one worth stopping and not the other.
Regardless if the soldier dies from a malicious act and the cyclist from an accidental one, we have the power to stop both. Why do you see one as an immediate necessity and the other unworthy of even your thought.
Most of this is obviously tongue in cheek, but I didn't think it that hard to follow.
