Milgram rationalizes these proceedings by concluding that the average individual will decide to please the experimenter rather than resist his authority to protect the well-being of the learner (Milgram 86).

The only potential hole in Captain Baum’s credibly in exercising disciplined initiative is the legitimacy of the mission itself.

However, Captain Baum exercised very disciplined initiative towards accomplishing the

Man, woman, child… terrorist. Trained in the crucible of Marines, to be the most devastating killing machine at the age of 19 or a martyr for weakness.

In 2015, 102 unarmed black citizens were killed unfairly by police, in 92 of those cases the police walked away without charges. Blacks are being killed at 5x the rate of whites and 3x the rates of hispanics, this is a serious problem. Colin Kaepernick (a quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers) was the first to stand up against this issue, by taking a knee during the national anthem of multiple NFL games. This has brought huge attention to an overwhelming issue in America. It has also brought loads of controversy to people everywhere who are now taking after Kaepernick and protesting during the national anthem, some people say that this is disrespectful to everyone who has served in the armed forces because they are not showing pride for our

Thank you for sharing your ethical dilemma, Marie. A similar incident occurred at my workplace, where a nurse did not do round her patients until shift change. The patient has expired during the night without her knowledge. As nurses, our reputation, integrity, honesty, and ethical principles are always on the line. As stated by Harris (2015), the foundation of the nursing code of ethics is based on compassion, respect, accountability, commitment and advocacy, as nurses, we use these qualities to promote health, safety, competency, integrity and professional growth.

The restrictions implemented by the organization or agency from which she is employed reveal yet another example

In “Lifeboat Ethics: The Case against Helping the Poor” (1974), Hardin debates whether rich countries should provide aid to poor countries through food supplies or immigration. Garrett Hardin was a renowned Americans philosopher received his PhD in microbiology from Stanford University. He has written several books and articles that mainly focus on ecology, and throughout his life, has constantly forewarned the world about the risks of overpopulation. Due to his deep understanding of ecology, and due to the intensive research the author has done on this particular topic, Hardin is credible to write an article about this topic. Moreover, Hardin’s main purpose in writing this piece is to persuade the readers, the population of the rich countries and their governments, not to help the poorer countries.
