Line 1:

'''Two wrongs make a right''' is a commonly used abbreviation for the belief that, if one wrong is committed, a second wrong will cancel it out (such as [[capital punishment]] for murderers, i.e. killing the killers). More common, however, is the reverse expression "two wrongs '''don't''' make a right" (used, for example, by opponents of capital punishment). Both are [[logical fallacy|logical fallacies]].
