Could you?

[Hollock]

I'd imagine not, but you never know

 

[Faladorian]

No, Murder is wrong, regardless of circumstance.

I hope you're joking.

I don't see how anybody can think that murder is wrong under any circumstances.

What if somebody just raped and killed your entire family and was about to set off all of the nukes in the world, creating a nuclear wasteland, and either you kill them right now or the world and humanity are doomed.

How is that not justifiable? I wouldn't think twice before killing that guy.

 

[Thundero13]

The circumstances would have to be extraordinary but, yes, yes I could.

 

[babinro]

I see no circumstance in which I could end someone's life.

This could be because I've accomplished all my goals in life and as such, have much less to live for than the average person.

The closest I could get to killing a person would be putting them out of their misery rather than have them slowly suffer for x days or weeks before they naturally die from something like cancer. Still, I doubt I could ever actually do that.

 

[ComicsAreWeird]

Nope. I value life and would not do it to anyone.

 

[balanovich]

Yes
By the way, given the right situation in the right context, EVERY HUMAN BEING CAN.

 

[TonyVonTonyus]

Yes I could with varying difficulty to whom it was I was going to kill and under what circumstances. If I was a soldier and tasked with killing another soldier I would do so easily. If I had to kill a criminal because I was ordered to by anyone I would do it albeit even easier than the other soldier. IfI had to kill a stranger it would be harder but if you don't think about the man and only the life it becomes easier. If I was forced to kill a loved one that would be hard to say the least.

 

[bulbasaur765]

I would like to think I could. It would be better if my victim was a complete stranger because I would feel less sympathy than if I killed someone I know. My first reason would be to kill in self-defense like if I encountered a homicidal person or if I was part of a conspiracy to assassinate a corrupt powerful person who was responsible for destroying someone or something that I took personally.

 

[Cogwheel]

No. Never. I couldn't even hurt someone (and by that, I mean even as little as a bruise or something). Yes, I realize that I'm weird.

 

[Skorpyo]

I go by the adage: "One for many".

If I'll save MORE people by ending a single persons life, I'm good to go.

 

[GotMalkAvian]

In a situation where another person was directly threatening my life or the life of someone I care about, I think I could end their life and get over it eventually. I think that's really the only situation where I could justify killing a person, though.

 

[John1307]

i have to agree any human can kill another in the right situation.

 

[Gladiateher]

Yes there are many situations in which I could. I go to boot camp this fall and it would be foolish for anyone who wants to join the military to not be at peace with them self on this issue.

 

[Sandytimeman]

Yes I could. Defending my loved ones. friends, or family I would, my family has a long line of warriors and soldiers. I probably am genetically and mentally equipped for it.

My father says his brothers in arms matter more to him than any other motive in duty or war. So killing to defend others is easier then killing for any other reason is what I take for that.

 

[Astoria]

In the right circumstances everyone is capable of murder.

 

[Rayne870]

It all depends really, I mean what do they smell like at the time of considering killing them?

 

[papdefer]

If it came down to protecting my children in a life or death situation then yes, without a doubt I would do it. But then again that's just basic instinctual wiring.

 

[Dr Snakeman]

I sure as hell hope so. I won't make a very good infantry officer if I'm incapable of killing a man, or ordering others to do so.

Doesn't mean I'd enjoy it... unless it was someone like

Spoiler: this guy.
