What would you do if you didn't have the money in order to buy your basic needs? Do you know what basic needs are. They are food,shelter, clothing and education, if your basic needs are not met you would probably do things that are ethical incorrect. But, what is ethics? Ethics is a system of moral principles that govern a person's behavior.
Firstly, we should take into consideration if you need to make an ethical decision in order to protect your family. For example, in the movie “ Les Miserables” Fantine prostitute herself in order to gain money to save Cossette who was in a tavern under the protection of a foster family. She had to commit a “crime” in order to protect her daughter.
Secondly, there are moments when you need to leave the ethicals ideas aside and decide based on their life and death condition. It is obvious that you will choose to leave the ethics ideas aside and do what you need to in order to save yourself. For an instance you need to provide food to your family but you don't have the money to afford it so most probably you will go into the street in order to try and find money for your family. Which not always is by obtaining a job.
When this situation happen and the person doesn't have the facilities, most of the time they turn their intentions toward the thieving world. Most of the time, thief have weapons such as knives and fire guns in order scare the people they steal from. As i said before, the new thieves go out to rob in order to feed their family, but this people most of the time don't know how to use them, so most of the time in order to frighten them they hurt the victim, sometimes just to steal their wallet. .
Meaning that they put another family in the same condition than they.
All in all, I believe that we should take into consideration the position the person is in, in order to decide whether the person that broke the ethical idea had a wrong intention or a good one, we should know why they commit them.
