 110 Killing1 is no solution  p.258

  Two Australians, Mack and Jill, are camping on Kangaroo Island.

  M: Look! There's a koala hugging a tree. They're really so cute. Jill, why are you crying?

  J: The government's planning on killing them because they may starve to death soon.

  M: What a stupid idea! They should try saving them instead.

  J: I agree. Let's start a campaign to save them. If we can find 5,000 people to each take one home. The problem will be solved.

  M: That's a good idea. You know, there're about 18 million people in Australia. Five thousand is only 0.027 percent of the population.

  J: Let's do it then.

  M: Killing as a solution to a problem is just not right.

  J: You can say that again.
