Could you kill another person?

The King of Moo

Would you be able to kill another person if you felt you had to: for example, if you felt your or the lives of your loved ones were threatened?
If you were in such a situation where you felt you had to kill another person, would you be able to bring yourself to do it?

Could you imagine any other situation where you might be so compelled: for example, if you were incredibly angry about something?

Personally, I think I might be able to do it if I felt I'd be killed if I didn't kill first, or if my loved ones were at risk, but I still have a niggling feeling that the enormity of taking someone's life would at least make me hesitate.

Theoretically/hypothetically, maybe if it was a life-threatening situation and whatnot (however, no-one knows 100% what'll happen in the future, what situations could occur that changes that - there aren't really absolutes in this unless we can predict the future..).
Physically, however, I probably wouldn't be capable :pac:

well the first 14 weren't a problem so I reckon I'd be good to knock off another

Melion

Id be fairly sure if someone did anything to my daughter i would have no problem killing them and being proud to do time for it.

If you need some assistance let me know...I've a large boot in the car and plenty of black sacks!

Not intentionally. I could do whatever is needed to protect myself if needs be, but I couldn't purposefully set out to kill someone.

dark crystal

If my child's life was in danger, yes. Without hesitation.

mackg

Fuck Yeah, if T.V and video games have taught me anything it's that killing people is class.

phoenix833

I think I'd attempt to seriously injure somebody if they were threatening my family etc.

I don't think anybody would consciously think "I'm going to kill this mo-fo now". I think we set up to defend but could end up killing someone quite easily. Even with a punch or a kick or what you may think was a stab would just to slow them down.

gigino

"another person" ? after the last one ?

Very true.

Video games have taught me that if I have sex with a whore down an alley I can beat her up afterwards with a giant pink dildo and then take her money.

And you probably only get a 1-star rating for that as well.

Is that the new hidden "Wayne Rooney Level" on FIFA 12?

You can't murder a whore anyway because they're already dead inside.

jdooley28

of course if my life was in danger why the hell wouldn't I.

I wouldn't do it again, it just gets boring after 30.

The first doesn't really count.

As far as I know your first killing comes consequence-free, to see if you like it.

Like those old book-of-the-month clubs.

So could you kill someone after that?

westendgirlie

I'm a weakling and woudlnt stand a chance

But I can run real fast

Could I? Yes. Would I? No.

Looks like you would be very busy killing people for a long time. Let me cut down the amount of killing you have to do. Just kill the idiots that make these programs and Simon Cowell, Kenny, Tubridy

You just need to spice it up, try role playing, pretend your a famous serial killer or maybe do it somewhere public where you have a little risk of being caught.

If anyone hurt my baby girl I honestly don't think I could stop myself.

Well in that case I'd really quite like to kill you. Though I'm not sure how.

Of course I love an ol' stabbing, but I wore out my stabbing arm in the local orphanage earlier.

You'll have to make do with death by jousting. Say Athlone town centre tomorrow at noon?

Chuck Stone

I think the people who said 'no' are kidding themselves. I think we all have the capacity to kill if pushed far enough.

KeithAFC

Would depend what the situation is.

pragmatic1

Yes. I've had to do mercy killings on a few animals before. Feel guilty after but I can block it out when needs be.

maddragon

Not again no.

Coriolanus

I think most people, whatever their concious answer could kill. We're programmed for it.

Killing a person's a bit different in fairness.

OutlawPete

When I was a really young, we used to have this whistle kettle (I still have it actually and use it often) but I always remember this one day, as it was boiling, my ma looking off in the distance and saying to me to that I was to always be a good boy and never play with guns but one night I shot a man out out in Marino just to watch him die. Now when I hear that whistle blowing, I hang my head and cry.

If it's a question of killing to live every person in the world would kill someone.

I've thought about this loads and I wouldn't hesitate to shoot someone but I'd say if I only had a knife I'd stall and get myself slaughtered
