Twitter responds to 'NYTMag' question on killing baby Hitler

The New York Times Magazine posed an ethical question to readers: Could you kill a baby Hitler?

And an email response from the NYT Mag's Charles Homans confirmed that it was part of the magazine's "Dear Reader" feature.

Sure enough, folks on Twitter had a lot to say about the controversial question, making "baby Hitler" a trending topic on the social media site Friday afternoon.
