HN's rules don't work that way, partly because formalizing them would merely turn them into a long list with an infinite number of loopholes to be exploited, and partly because we'd die of boredom if we tried.
Users here are simply expected to live by the spirit of the law—civility and substantiveness—when commenting here. Snarky one-liners that characterize a (vague) opposing view as "killing human beings" fail the "civil and substantive" test. Plus there's outright rudeness in comments such as https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11663455 and https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11651181, which has no place here.

Bottom point: I am not malicious and I contribute. So I'd appreciate if the trigger was not pulled on me even though it's probably the only way to get one's comments removed from here :-/
