If you had to kill someone, do you truly, honestly, believe that you would be able to? (details)
Would the act haunt you or would you be able to eventually shrug it off as being necessary and whatever happened was out of your hands? Do you think the method in which you killed the other person would have any impact on how you felt? I know this question sounds weird, but I'm just curious, seeing as people have killed others when their home is invaded or some such --This question is assuming that you really don't have much of a choice in the matter, the other person is coming at you with a knife, a gun, a candy bar, some form of deadly weapon.

I would kill someone if I witnessed them sexually abusing a child. I could shoot them, but stabbing someone to death or torture would weigh heavily on my conscience... Gun or poision and I could kill, but probably not by any other means. It would take something extreme to make me want to murder, but I do believe if I witnessed that sort of thing I could kill without guilt or regret. I wouldn't be proud or sorry.

Yes, I would definitely be able to kill someone if necessary (it might haunt me for a while, but you have to do what you have to do).

If I had to kill someone by defending myself or someone else then why would I feel any remorse, if anything I would pat myself on the back for ridding the world of someone that is a threat to society and be glad there can be no more innocent victims for that person.

I'd fight, and during the fight s/he might die, but that would be very haunting for me.

I have thought about it and yes I could kill someone, if someone was trying to hurt someone I loved I wouldn't hesitate in order to protect them. They would have to deserve it though - and yes, some people do deserve it

Well, I mean, if he's trying to kill me, of course I would. In the most brutal way possible. I have a lot of heavy ob
jects around my house (pun intended) and I can just heave it at him until he passes out. But before that, I'd find some way to lower his guard, like maybe flash him or something, then dazzle him, and then pick a heavy ob ject, heave it at his head. If he gets knocked out, I'd tie him to my Tesla Coil, and if he wakes up, I'll threaten to press the on button until the cops get there. If he doesn't, I'll keep throwing heavy stuff at him (he'll be in too much pain for the first one. Then when he's down, I'll pour corrosive substances on his face, then take the nearest sharp ob ject and poke out his eyes. Then I'd tase him, and while doing that, I'll cut off his **** if the person is a guy, or stick ground chili paste (I'm indian) up their ***** if they are a girl. Then I'd stab them 37 times in the chest, cut off their arms, and eat them, because my stomach will make the rumblies that only hands could crave. XD Like (1)

I don't know. To be honest one of the things on my bucket list is "Don't kill anybody". No joke.

I think I could do it. I mean, I would probably need reason. Like. . . a really good one. It would have to be an extremely bad person. I always feel bad when it's people that are genuinely good, have kids, etc. But if it was a bad person, I could torture them, whatever, no problem.

Sometimes bad people have kids too though.

Yes but often times those kids are better off other places having to deal with that person again. I mean. . . I know they would love them, blah, blah, but if they are bad through and through, then why in the hell would they be good to their children??

I believe that absolutely anyone is capable of absolutely anything given the right circumstances. As for how I'd deal with it, you can never know for sure until it happens ;-)
