What happens if you cannot keep both ideas of a right to life and Utilitarianism at the same time; which should we let go of? Why?

2. Won't utilitarians, most of the time, side with the majority at the expense of the minority? How do we prevent abuse of minorities for the sake of majorities on a utilitarian view? It would be great to know what you think.
