Poll: Murder !! What stops you?

[Lord George]

The law is the only thing that stops me from kidnapping, torturing and then skinning and eating people. Actually the law is pathetic so nothings stopping me. Now where did I put my knife?

 

[Zac_Dai]

Seriously if the only thing that keeps you from killing is the law you're pretty fucked.

Those kind of people end up doing shit like school shootings.

Prison.
Prison rape, I'm weak so I'm screwed if I go to prison.

I currently don't have anyone in my life I would kill. There are people I hate, sure, but that doesn't give me the right to take their lives. Even if I did want to kill someone, the difficulty of the task, and the fact that I'll probably be caught if I did it, would stop me.

Sometime though I might just get some friends and guns together and raid one of those Neo-Nazi/White Supremacist camps and kill a bunch of 'em. It's okay though cause most of them have enough guns to give them a fighting chance, so when I win it's because I'm better than them. And they're dicks.

no its not. the kinds of people who commit school shooting are those who are delusional and have mental illness of some sort.
and according to this poll that would make 21% of the population commit high school shootings.

You're eliminating another thinking, feeling person from the world and you can't take it back.

Violence in real life disgusts me. I would never intentionally harm a human being.

 

[throwitinthetrash]

I just have to figure out who should die first....

 

[Fingerprint]

Morals, conscience and not being psychotic have worked for me so far...

21% of the people that frequent the escapist and who have looked at your poll, not 21% of the population. You have to look at your target audience first of all. Second, this is the internet and people say stupid shit on the internet because of the anonynimity it provides and because they think they're being funny. I voted other because I think this poll is stupid.

 

[Delicious]

No one deserves death.

For most it is too harsh; for the rest it is not harsh enough.

i hardly said it was a scientifically accurate representation and study of psychological motives,now, did? and why bother to post on a thread that you find stupid. i was just looking for a decent debate on people's views on murder, and what drives/stops people doing it.

 

[Lyri]

I don't kill not because the law forbids and not because i know it's wrong, but simply because I as an arnarchist, cant be arsed to go through of all the trouble of killing, much easier to just ignore the fucker.

Because you're an Anarchist you can't be arsed to kill someone?
I don't see how those points are relevant, unless the Anarchist movement has changed a few rules and regulations.
Formal dress and serial nonchalance?

Personally, the fact I don't have an actual gun or a silencer stops me. I have no quarrels with putting a piece of lead in the back of someones skull quietly.
I could name two people i want to remove; other than that nobody has wronged me enough to warrant it.

literally and figuratively, I lose so many ways. I'm killing myself if I'm sent to prison.
