Hang on a moment, there's something about this use case that I don't really get.

Is it ever possible to send a murderer to the right address? I mean, shouldn't we be throwing a UserIsAMurderer exception and take some other kind of action?




Is it ever possible to send a murderer to the right address?

Lesser of two evils, in some cases the intended victim might have done something to the murderer, whereas a total stranger no.

Moral of the story is that maps and addresses are a ever changing thing, dbl check before running off with your AR15 or AK ;)


The intended victim might be being killed in order to suppress the truth about even greater crimes, in which case the lesser of two evils might be for a random person to be killed.
