When an individual crosses ethical lines they would normally not cross because they possess a strong desire to make the world a better place for both people and or other life forms to live in
Lisa: Kaid, why did you take those documents from Harold's office earlier? You taking things that don't belong to you without consent is wrong.
Kaid: Those documents indicated Harold was stealing some of the products we are producing. We need to show them to our supervisor, so it can be handled appropriately and prevent this from happening again. I'm playing Alucard's game. I know it was wrong to take them without telling him, but we can't just let him get away with this.
Lisa: Agreed...

Get the Silent Witness mug.The idea that people who are alive have more legal rights and protections and are often valued more socially by mainstream society and the government compared to people who are deceased.
People need to be more mindful of about the Privilege of the Living. Just because someone has died does not mean that they no longer have any value.

Get the Hanging it up mug.Abbreviated P.F.R.; An individual who does not identify as a supporter for particular political party. They are called this because of how they usually make their own path that is consistent with their values and world views instead of just going by views held by other people, which is similar to what a free runner does when trying to move through an area.
Yassin does not strongly favor any political party over the others. They have made their own unique identity based on their values and beliefs. Yassin is a political free runner.

Get the Political free runner mug.A gesture to when the government finds out a particular individual has died and, as a result of them finding out, that individual’s rights change. This change consists in them permanently losing some of their legal rights and protections; as well as having many of their other rights and protections significantly weakened.
Kade: Where were you last Friday? You never showed to attend the meeting we had scheduled to talk about our group project.
Hannah: Sorry about that. My mom died of cardiac arrest and I had to deal with all of the government paperwork related to her owing taxes, make her burial arrangements, get a legal pronouncement of death to begin the work necessary to acquire death certificates for her, tell all of my relatives about her passing, and arrange for her pet cat to find a new home.
Kade: I’m sorry for your loss. How are you holding up with all of this?
Hannah: I am doing alright. I’ve already taken care of most of the important tasks that I have to take care of. My only major concern is the rights shift. Considering she died, most her legal rights and protections have either been greatly weakened or eliminated; and as her only living child, the responsibility of monitoring the government to ensure they appropriately enforce those rights and protections in the event that certain crimes, like grave robbery, occur falls to me. This is especially concerning given that I heard that a series of grave robberies that appear to be related to each occurred in some of the towns that are nearby the town she is buried, which they have not been able to find and identify the perpetrator yet.
Kade: I can definitely see why you are concerned given the situation and everything going on.

Get the the rights shift mug.Two ethical problems that arise when an individual asks someone out. They include:
-The assumption that if you ask someone out, then they have to say yes to the person who asked them out. However, this is not true as it is up to the person getting asked to decide. They should say no if they don’t like you to avoid causing both of you to suffer a lot of unnecessary pain down the line.
-The presumption by one or both of the people involved that it is acceptable to spread bad rumors about the other person if the person asking the individual out gets rejected. This leads to unnecessary conflict and distrust of each other which benefits neither of you. Just because it didn't work out does not mean that they are entitled to spread bad rumors about each other or that you two can't be friends anymore.
