To tell or not to tell

Problem (situation): There is a fly on a President’s forehead. Many flies keep landing on his forehead — one at a time. That irritates the President.

The Secret Service agent can kill the fly with one shot. The top shooter didn’t fire the shot. His job is to protect the President and kill the fly.

The scenario is to show the “truth” is the truth. To tell the truth is a high level of critical thinking.

Which is the worst result? (depends the situation and who).

Do you have similar situations?
