Gentlemen, Your Verdict 3 Pages 633 Words

"I can save five people after accusing the death of all the crew or sacrificing 15 people I am with other people, goodbye, teacher" (page 25) It is the last word of the captain of the short story "gentleman, your judgment". Lieutenant Oram is facing an ethical dilemma: he must sacrifice the lives of several crews to save them as much as possible. His action after the incident showed that he was a great commander and showed humanity.

After the accident, Captain Olam immediately controlled the situation by issuing orders to the shocked crew. This shows that he is calm under pressure. His first instruction was to stop the engine. This reflects the mechanical knowledge of his submarine. Of course, this is an important requirement for Captain Navy. His staff reported that the situation could not be managed by them, he ordered the radio to call the Coast Bureau. This shows that he knows when to ask for external help. Unfortunately, he found help after about a week, but they had less than two days' broadcast. After listening to the news, he was pale and "I sat nearly for a minute and was staring at myself" (page 23). His reaction is very human. After hearing the devastating news, he was shocked and shocked.

Soon after hearing the news, Captain Olam executed "his plan and excited himself" to sacrifice 15 lives to save five people "(p. 23). Here he fulfills his mission as a commander by making the best decisions for his crew. This is not a quick decision made by the person who caught a cold. Instead, as a captain, he understands that this situation is no longer available and needs to be in an emergency situation. Every second he late means to reduce his life. Besides, he must also decide immediately who he is

The submarine has 20 people trapped in the ocean floor - your decision, a gentleman. Help does not arrive in a week. There is sufficient oxygen left for about 3 days, but oxygen lasts for 1 person per week. What should the captain decide and how should he decide? Five people were chosen to live and the rest were killed without their knowledge. Taking all the facts into account, Lieutenant Oram should be innocent. When an explosion occurred, these people were in the submarine and damaged the ship. An explosion is probably caused by an acoustic mine or a magnetic mine. The propeller was blown away and the steering gear stopped moving. The submarine is at the tip of the sandbar. One person is dead, everyone has a bruise or a bruise

Then the problem of "gentleman's judgment" is closely related to the problem of trolleys solved by famous philosopher J. J. Thompson. Basically, the problem with the trolley is that the runaway train hits five people on the street, and you or the driver or bystander can choose to hit someone by changing the way. Through the investigation conducted by the survey, many people agreed that the train would hit this strange person. It is more direct killing than five passive killings, but the overall result is better. Thompson explains why this happens, but it also offers a slightly different solution to challenge these reasons. Instead, in order to save most people, the surgeon can move the cart so that they can kill the patient's organs and transplant them to the five people in need. Results are getting better, but most people seem to be wrong. Thompson's theory thinks it wrong to use one person as a remedy to others. Another reason is that killing a patient is a violation of rights.
