That no one‘s life should ever be taken under any circumstances, ever, flucking ever.
If you argue that self-defense is a reason to take a life, everyone would agree precisely on the meaning and timing of self-defense.
All 100 of you would agree exactly and precisely on the meaning of liberty. How far it goes, where it stops and why, and how it is defined and enforced.
And of course, property. The pony with The Idiot’s one trick. What is property? Indians don’t think land is property. It belongs to everyone, right? And if you disagree, what will you tell the Indians if you want to build a house on their land and keep others off? And some parts of the world today, in 2021, people are property. The slave trade, the sex trade exist today.
All 100 of you would have the same exact definitions for property, right? And all of you would have the exact same requirements for proving ownership and enforcing your rights to keep and hold that property and the odd chance that some other person would want to confiscate it from you.
Naïve is cute when you’re seven. When you’re a grown-up, naïve is just another word for stupid.
