These items on the list is always wrong thereis never an instince where this is fine. These actions are universally wrong. The definition of universality is:
The quality of being true in or appropriate for all situations.
Another way to say this is that these are moral principles these are universal rules that guide people’s behavior. The name for ethical based on moral principles is deontology
Deontology is an ethical theory that uses rules to distinguish right from wrong. Deontology is often associated with philosopher Immanuel Kant. Kant believed that ethical actions follow universal moral laws, such as “Don’t lie. Don’t steal. Don’t cheat.
There are other theories of ethics which dont have moral principles such as consequentialism. Consequentialism is a result for example if a consequentialist had to pick beetween letting 2mil people to drown to death or 1mil people to kill they would pick killing 1mil but a deontologist would pick to let 2mil people die due to murder. Moral principles is a universal rule to guide peoples behavior like murder, tresspassing, and theft are not alowed.
A moral agent is were someone has ethical responsibilities they know the diference between right and wrong

Chimp: Does not have moral agency but they do have a bit of moral agency because they’re one of the most smart animals.
Alien: Most likely has moral agency nobody is sure if aliens exist or not but they would probably be smarter than humans so they would get moral agency. Aliens can build space ships so they are smart.
Robot: Has moral agency because it is smarter than humans due to all the knowledge we give it but it depends on its programing. For example if somone programs it to kill people it wont have moral agency because its following its programing. It would have to be an ai to have free will so if it is an ai it would have moral agency
Baby: Does not have moral agency because its brain hasn’t developt.

Personhood and Moral Agency
Ethics effects human beings because with humans if we murderd another human we would put them in jail unless it was for self defence and the reason why ethics doesnt effect other animals is because its thier natural instinct. The reason why we can study ethics is because we are the smartest animal right now because our brains.
Ethics can also apply to aliens and robots. Personhood is any intelligent being. Having personhood means responsability another way to say that somone is responsable is moral agent. The reason why domthing like a baby or toddler cant be moral agent is because thier brain hasnt developt. Inteligence is based on brain developement and as you get older you get a more developed brain so you get responcabilities.
If sombody is crazy they dont have responcabilities most the time but if thier crazy enouph to kill a bunch of people they can be arrested. If sombody is mentaly disabled they do not have responcability
For ethics to effect people you need to have at least 2 people.

Secret Service protects the president and the vice president. It was founded in 1865 as a branch of the USA Treasury department.
here is some pictures of the assassination attempt and of Donald Trump.
Critical Thinking
I think this is very very bad but it is good in a way because donald trump would probably get more votes. This is very dangerous because it could have started ww3 if it was an inch to the left. The reason why this could have started ww3 is because ww1 started because of franz ferdinand assassination the president of Austrian which made 40 million people die and thats also part of the reason why ww2 started and history aways repeats itself.
