what about people that return carts half the time but dont half the time?
If you only commit murder every other day, are you a murderer?
Only on the on days
the whole point of the shopping carts question is that it is not actually a crime but undesirable behavior. murder is a crime not just bad behavior. not a good comparison.
It's not about the severity it's about whether or not the frequency of which you do a thing affects whether you are labeled by that thing.
that sounds right.
They generally know what's right, but mostly from people telling them, not from first-hand experience. Their values haven't been fully tempered yet.
