Consequentialism and Ethical Decision Making

 
Based  on your readings for this week write a response in at least 250-300 words to the following prompt:

A police officer close to retirement is training a rookie cop. Their shift is over and they are returning to the precinct. Suddenly, they spot several teenagers smoking marijuana. Using each approach to consequentialist decision-making (ethical egoism, contractualism, and utilitarianism), explain how the officers’ choice not to pursue the matter is (or is not) ethical behavior.

Respond to at least two of your classmates’ posts by Day 7.
