If I was forced to chose between one life or five lives, I chose the possibility of property damage.

Edit: I added the word If, which I missed originally.

well, to be clear, you weren't forced to choose, you were presented with an option to make a choice, you could've just left it alone.

Oops I missed the word If at the beginning of my comment.

I shall fix it, I guess derailing the train is the fourth option, standing by and doing nothing is the third option.

Who is forcing you? Now im even more fucking confused? What kind of trolley problem is this.

"if you were standing at the rail switch of a trolly heading towards 4 people, and flipping the switch would divert it killing 1 person. But there was a person behind you holding a gun to your head, telling you to switch it, would you switch it?"
