The reason this is a fallacy is it's an attempt to justify one's own wrongdoing by accusing the "other side" of doing the same thing. The old saying is that "two wrongs don't make a right". Another part of the fallacy is that it's an accusation. Do we really do it too? Examples please.
You still don't "get" my point.
If you can't argue without a logical fallacy, you shouldn't argue...
So your point is that if you are so good at logic that you can't make logical fallacies, you should not argue? Yeah, that's real good advice.
