Bennett bumble

"Whoops", said the man as he slipped. Bennett, being an intelligent man was just trying to share an opinion that many "free-thinkers" might share. He did say toward the end of his hypothetical statement that it was:

"an impossible, ridiculous and morally reprehensible thing to do, but your crime rate would go down. So these far-out, these far-reaching, extensive extrapolations are, I think, tricky."

For any well-educated sane person to broadcast an offensive 'hypothetical' idea like this.. well, tricky is probably the best way to put it.
