Poll: You can bring a loved one back from the dead, or kill a terrible person.

[zombiejoe]

You are given a choice by a shadowy figure at a fast food restaurant.

He can either bring one of your lost loved ones back from the dead, not as a zombie, or a monster, but in a normal, very healthy form. While this makes you and the one you picked happy, this choice can be seen as selfish compared to the second.

Or he can go and kill a terrible person of your choice, a rapist, a terrorist, a serial killer, anyone that would be considered "evil" (not just someone you hate personally) and you would not be blamed for the kill. While this may be seen as better for you and others, you will not be able to bring anyone back, and you are technically a killer yourself. The bad person could also want to change his/her ways, and you would stop them from doing so.


and you can't kill him with your choice.

Bring someone back. Embrace life over death and white over black (totally not in the racist way). It is better to have life then death.

Fred Phelps. 'Nuff said.

Then I would throw a "God Hates Fred Phelps" party.

If you bring someone back, they're just going to die again. If you kill a dead person, they stay gone.

seeing as raising the dead is a paradox type deal, and i dont think i could ever kill someone, i'll go with the last option

 

[Stalk3rchief]

My mother recently died of cancer, so I vote to bring her back. She was a tough lady so she'd probably just kill my enemies anyways, win-win. =D

Bring a loved one back. It's only logical. Anyone can kill but nobody can bring back the dead.

Or I wouldn't choose either, because I'd expect to be tricked. (Only the paranoid survive, right?)

I'd bring back one dog of mine. It had only one eye, and animals with poor depth-perception are what makes me wake up every morning.

I'm lucky enough that the people I know who died all lived their lives fully until their closing moments and had little in the way of regret. Bringing them back to a world where they would have nothing waiting for them would be cruel.

Killing a terrible person, though...I don't think I know of anyone 'terrible' enough.

Lets just go with the "Walk away and enjoy a burger" option.

Since if I posted who I wanted to kill I would probably be banned for flaming or being offensive .. so I would bring back my cat or if you can save the "resurrection" I would use it once my dog dies.

I'd bring a loved one back to life, unless this terrible person was doing terribly things to someone who I know personally. In which case, I'd kill him.

 

[s0p0g]

bring someone back - the person could help me vanquish more than just one evil-doer.
exterminating only ONE person just seems so wasted on something like a "wish"

 

[Amberella]

I would bring my mom back to life. <3

Embrace[...]white over black (totally not in the racist way).

Best post i've ever seen on The Escapist.

Kill an evil person of my choosing, hands down. I will not degrade the memory of my loved ones my bringing them back from the dead.

Osama bin Laden here I come.

 

[ten.to.ten]

Kill Antonin Scalia.

 

[nunqual]

I don't really have any dead loved ones.. and I don't want to kill anyone..

 

[Phlakes]

Funny thing there, I would have him kill my brother.
