I certainly did not strawman your argument. You were saying that failure to explicitly save a life should be punishable as if you murdered someone, or were you not?

Ok, So the things required for my point

 

1) If you have a choice to save lives or not, with no negative effects for choosing to save lives, and you choose to not save lives, you are a murderer

 

The things required for your point, that are not required for my point

1) A world full of policemen (ie no farmers, doctors, researchers, teachers etc) would lead to less deaths

2) If you have a choice to dedicate your entire life to something, and that would save lives, then to not do that, you are a murderer.

 

My argument is logical and morally defensible (that's not to say that contrary beliefs aren't logical and morally defensible) The policeman argument is silly, illogical and impractical.

 

You made a silly argument that had some similarities to my argument, then you raised objections to the silly argument you raised, and then you claimed that those objections to your silly argument meant that my argument also was silly.

 

That is exactly what strawmanning is.
