Thats a fine response. Still a trolley problem. You might be right. However, the police have been shooting people for being black for decades and being black isn’t even contagious and that hasn’t caused a civil war. Kent State didn’t cause a civil war. But it COULD cause a civil war so that deserves to be considered when solving this trolley problem. Another outcome could be people stay in self-quarentine. Probably quite likely even.
