Well, im going to be an officer in the USMC. so I guess eventually i might have to. I hope im not one of the soldiers thats just fighting because they have somthing we want. I want to have a reason to kill them, not just because they have oil.
No. Under no circumstance in any way shape or form would I want to kill someone directly myself. Not in self-defense, not someone who'd killed someone close to me in cold blood. Call my a coward - but violence is a bad thing in my books and I never want to sink myself to that level of being a killer.
Although I would always seek a non-violent way of solving the problem first, I'm sure that I could kill someone. If they were threatening an innocent person, say with a knife to the neck, I could kill them. However, I believe that I would always try to just maim or seriously injure someone rather than outright kill them.
If someone was endangering my loved ones in a serious way then I could. But in cold blood or other circumstances, I would very much doubt it. I hope a situation never arises where I'd have to even consider it.
no, i couldn't even kill a fish (which i caught with my BARE HANDS).
although i was perfectly happy handing it to a thirteen year old with a big stick (not a euphemism).
i would think to much about persons life (not talking about the fish any more).
almost nobody could kill a person, even if they think they definitely could, when it comes to it, they wouldn't be able to bring themselves to it.

For the right reasons, everyone could, although it's also a matter of intruments, like I'm not able to kill someone in a fistfight if my opponent is twice my size and knows kung fu.... But if I have a gun, and my opponent is tied down, I'd be able to kill him, but again, for the right reasons. Stalin, you bet, Gandhi? No way!
Yes, very easily. That's kind of a vague question though. Everyone is capable of it if pushed or threatened to their limit.
Yes I COULD, butwhy would I WANT to?
Could just walk away from the whole deal and, you know, prison.
