Would you hurt somebody for money?

Wanderer2010 · 13-12-2015 07:11PM #1

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 · 13-12-2015 07:17PM

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 · 13-12-2015 07:19PM

No I would not.

I do not enjoy inflicting pain on anyone.

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

13-12-2015 07:19PM

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

mad muffin · 13-12-2015 07:21PM

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

3hn2givr7mx1sc · 13-12-2015 07:21PM

Why does someone want this person beaten up?

c_man · 13-12-2015 07:22PM

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

Selection box?

candy-gal1 · 13-12-2015 07:25PM

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 · 13-12-2015 07:26PM

No.pointless.

tomwaterford · 13-12-2015 07:27PM

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 · 13-12-2015 07:27PM

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

Charlie19 · 13-12-2015 07:28PM

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 · 13-12-2015 07:30PM

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

Treepole · 13-12-2015 07:31PM

200k, I'd do it.

I think we're talking hypotheticals in fairness.

Mr_Muffin · 13-12-2015 07:34PM

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 · 13-12-2015 07:36PM

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 · 13-12-2015 07:38PM

No.

Lyaiera · 13-12-2015 07:41PM

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

riffmongous · 13-12-2015 07:49PM

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 · 13-12-2015 07:53PM

Only 3000 flurbos.

hairyslug · 13-12-2015 07:59PM

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 · 13-12-2015 08:04PM

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 · 13-12-2015 08:05PM

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 · 13-12-2015 08:07PM

Only f they were smaller than me

darkpagandeath · 13-12-2015 08:10PM

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

Hammer89 · 13-12-2015 08:17PM

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 · 13-12-2015 08:17PM

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

NachoBusiness · 13-12-2015 08:26PM

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

Squeeonline · 13-12-2015 08:29PM

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 · 13-12-2015 08:32PM

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

Everyone has a price.

I would do it for free but punishing doesn't come 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'
