Tom Of Gallifrey asks :

But if I kill. Wipe out a whole intelligent life form, then I become like them. I'd be no better than the Daleks.

This observation has never made sense to me.  It seems to me that there is a world of difference between a living being that takes one life with great reluctance, only because it would save many, and a group of ruthless living beings that deliberately seek universal conquest and destruction of other life forms.

I vote yes, but only on the strict terms in which this has been presented.

edited - I vote yes to ...could you then kill that child?  not to does Tom have the right? to which I vote no.
