Could you kill somebody?

[UsefulPlayer 1]

Most definitely, I don't even think it had to be "extreme conditions."

Not in cold blood as I am a Jedi, but if I had the right reasons too then I probably would.

This maybe because I saw a documentary on 9/11 yesterday, but if I met Osama Bin Laden on a one-on-one meeting and had a gun, and had only the choice of killing him or letting him get away, then hopefully I would most certainly cap his ass.

yes hammer to the head and bury them alive and whatch them die (got idear from csi) if they:
a. try to rob me
b. try to kill me
c. try to kill others

but only within reason and if no one knows where they are. and definatly NOT some one innecent and who does not desrve it.

[Rawker]

does it count if we already have?

 

[Damura]

Yes.

 

[Lord George]

Hmmm I am unsure, I won't act like some internet tough guy and say I'd coldly cut down a person. Physically I'm strong, tough and quite fast due to boxing and weight lifting and mentally I kill animals occasionally (for a farm owned by friend's near me), I don't think much about the animals because there just a commodity, but a human is a whole complex bag of memories, thoughts, friends, family and emotions, likely if threatened I would act but I am unsure how I would deal with the psychological aftermath.

 

[MercenaryCanary]

Well, physically yes, because I was taught at school how to use a military issue L-98 rifle and have fired various other weapons in that time. I also have a knack for seeing the potential weapon in anything.

I wish I went to your school then. Everyone treats me like a psychopath when I tell them that "this" or "that" would make a good bludgeon, or that I make a bulls-eye from 100 yards with only iron sights. You're rather lucky.

On topic: Yes.

According to my mother, I have killed countless starving african children by not eating my greens. If it's that easy, then I doubt I'll have a problem taking on starving adults. Non-starving ones might take a little more planning and forethought.

 

[Spitfire175]

Yes I could. Quite a lot of people actually. But I don't want to.

 

[Et3rnalLegend64]

I would if someone threatened me or my friends? Here's something. Have we gotten a "no" yet?

On topic: Yes.

Stupidest part is, I'm British and went to a UK school, so really I shouldn't have had weapons. It was some RAF cadet thing, we did RAF training every Friday after school and there was a seperate Army cadet thing too, basically just military training in case anyone wanted to go into the Armed Forces after school. I did want to join the RAF for a time but decided to try game development instead. But at least I came out of it knowing about first aid, aircraft recognition, weapons training, stealth and tactics, and the ability to fly a glider under supervision, with the chance to try for a full gliding license at any time...

 

[bodyklok]

I honestly don't know, all I can say is that killing someone, regardless of what you use and often why you're doing it, isn't as easy as it seems.

 

[Julianking93]

Well of course if someone was in my house or if someone was wanting to fight.


But if you're talking about just going up to a random person and just kill them, then no. I'd have to have a motive.

 

[Logic 0]

No I just can't do no matter who they are.

 

[Souplex]

Humans are soft and fleshy; it is really easy to kill them.

:O No fair! I only know how to do advanced first aid, weapons handling, and I haven't been taught how to learn to sneak around, I just walk slowly towards people and cover myself in a load of leaves. If only I knew how to do what you could do, man....

 

[The Riff]

Yes. Stab them and bury them somewhere really remote while using gloves, normal clothes and a hat and then burn them all at different places.

 

[Insanum]

Yes.

Mentally it wouldn't phase me. Physically doing it could be the problem (im a weed)

 

[JenXXXJen]

I'd like to say no, but in the right circumstances I probably would, as would most people. Think of the Milgram Experiment: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milgram_experiment

 

[Eternal_24]

I don't know. I've been thinking a lot about death and its implications lately... before now I'd of just said yes because I didn't care, it would've been a 'no brainer' for me but I'm not quite sure if I could kill someone anymore. To kill someone means ending their conscious experience of this world permenantly and, honestly, there are few people who really deserve that. If put in the "you kill them or they kill you (or your friend/family member)" scenario then yeah, I guess I'd kill the guy, there's really no other choice...

 

[Joa_Belgium]

I'd maybe shout that in a blind rage, but I don't think I could at the moment itself.

... Unless it was against someone who killed or gravely hurt someone I love in my life (family/close friends) and could continue to do so, unpunished. I'd like to take matters into my own hands if it is required.
