The tendency to do evil things should be the overriding concern, not the relative ranking of them.

We shouldn't let people get away with doing minor bad things just because they're not as bad as other bad things we let them get away with.

Who is "we"? I have bills to pay and my own family to take care of and generally a thousand more important things to worry about.

Since you apparently have none of these things, you go get em tiger.

We as a society. If everyone just thought about their own pod because they can't be bothered about govt corruption then that's how dictatorship wins. MLK had a family too. We can't all be MLK but it doesn't mean we need to be okay with shitty things happening just because they're not as shitty as other things we let happen.
