Would you hurt somebody for money?

Wanderer2010

A lot of threads lately on humanity and how you feel about it. Here's another one for you, would you seriously injure, and I'm talking multiple punches broken limbs and maybe even a stab wound or two, a complete stranger that was tied up and couldn't get away, all for 200 thousand? You would never get caught but would have to inflict serious hurt to get the cash? And it's based on gender so a guy beating a guy and woman beating a woman. Would you??

There are sites on the dark net which would be better suited if you're looking for these kinds of services. You could probably find a few AHers willing to do it but it's much easier to track. Just some friendly advice.

I don't get it, why would anyone hurt anyone, for any amount of money?

My answers no tbh, strange question.

Fox_In_Socks

Thometimeth, I think that I could emotionally hurt thomeone for money, but then I justht think if that wath me, in that pothition of being hurt, I would feel hate myselth.

I think my emotionth would get in the way:(

The_Valeyard

No I would not.

I do not enjoy inflicting pain on anyone.

No amount of cash would be enough to lose your own humanity.

No. You'd need a complete lack of empathy or compassion to be able to do that.

mad muffin

If I wouldn't be hurt back? Yes. Yes I would.

Why does someone want this person beaten up?

c_man

No. But I might give the person offering, a box or two.

Selection box?

If the person would get proper medical/hospital care after, if I could be guaranteed there would be no lasting serious damage to the person or death, if it would not come back on me in any way no matter what and all that was guaranteed , and if it was for a few hundred million then maybe

Suppose the person was a serial rapist who never got caught.

Not in a million years. My conscience would haunt me forever, that is if I could even get over the hurdle of first inflicting pain on another human being.

Rubberchikken

No.pointless.

tomwaterford

To a complete stranger who you don't know/know anything about them??

Then no...but I could understand people who would do it to someone who hurt their kids etc

The Backwards Man

I'd take the money and pay some scobie a hundred quid to do it for me.

Charlie19

Can I choose the target?

If so I would gladly do damage to that rte chef Donal something or other.

You would want to be sure of your facts in that case. Attacking someone purely on the basis of accusations rather than proven evidence is a pretty dodgy road to go down.

MilesMorales1

Nope. Never ever. My conscience goes mad at me for doing anything wrong, let alone actually hurting someone.

Treepole

200k, I'd do it.

I think we're talking hypotheticals in fairness.

I would. 200k? 20k and i would do it.

You should PM the OP with your details, see if your bid is the lowest

Gerry Rio

I wouldnt no. And Ive surprised myself with that answer as Im quite money driven at times. But Ive just found out, happily, than Im more humanity driven.

I would, however, gladly pay someone a grand to inflict similar injuries on a certain someone if I knew it couldnt come back to me.

Some people just cross a line.

Dayor Knight

No.

Lyaiera

How about a Chinese burn for a half pack of rashers?

riffmongous

Strange question but kidnapping and the often extreme violence that goes with it can turn out to be a big business in lawless societies, like Chechnya in the 90s

ygolometsipe

Only 3000 flurbos.

hairyslug

Read it as 200 and was in two minds about whether to do it or not, but for 200k, I'd be down in Tesco now picking up a good carving knife

Ave Sodalis

No. I can't even hurt a fly. However, in saying that how many studies are there of people who, when given a position of power, abuse it? Look at the Stanford Prison Experiment. Or the experiment when a "teacher" had to shock a "student" (actor) with increasing voltage for every wrong answer. So with that in mind, I would take the no answers with a pinch of salt... my own included.

Diamond Doll

Nope. I feel guilty if I - not even kill a spider - but even when I put a spider outside the window/door, because I worry it won't survive out in the elements. Couldn't purposely injure another random human being. For any amount of money. Just wouldn't be worth having to live with my conscience afterwards.

recylingbin

Only f they were smaller than me

darkpagandeath

1 out of 10 is this not better suited for Reddit. :pac:

Hammer89

I absolutely would, but I'd also throw your man €100k when the smoke settles. I think it'd soften the blow so to speak.

osarusan

Only if I get paid in gold bullion. It sounds cooler that way.

NachoBusiness

I'd kill a communist for fun but for a green card, I'd carve them up real nice.

Squeeonline

I think I need to do some introspection after reading everyones posts.

If someone asked me, my first questions would be "who and how much?" before thinking of any morals.

pickarooney

Suppose the person tied up was a masochist.

Would you take 200k not to hurt them?

Even masochists have a limit though. You could just hurt them until they used their "safe word". This would technically fulfill the contract of hurting them, allowing you to claim the money with a clear conscience.

If that person was Robbie Williams, I'd do it for free

Excellent point.
The Stanford experiment is a great example and people were abusing power for no money.

So I dunno. I figure most wouldn't for a low amount of money. But that old saying everyone has a price. So if the amount kept going up and up you would have a point were most people would.

Reminds me what Jon Roberts said in the excellent documentary cocaine cowboys. He said everyone had a price and used an example of paying a stripper to have sex with his friend. The stripper would say no she would not to 500 dollars. But he would just up the price... To quote 'ok here's 2,000 dollars... Here's 5,000 dollars then and eventually they would break'
