Something to ponder...

[TheKruzdawg]

Someone posed this question to me once and I liked it so I thought I would share it with the rest of you, so here it goes:

Imagine you were able to travel back in time to 1939 Germany and you had an opportunity to steal Hitler's wallet. This will in no way change the outcome of the war, there are no important documents inside, only a few deutsche marks. However, stealing his wallet will completely ruin his evening. Do you feel MORALLY OBLIGATED to steal his wallet? Would you do it?

 

[Craig Mccarthy]

why yes, i would steal his wallet....

...for the lulz

 

[Logic 0]

I'd do it just to say that I did it.

 

[Pimppeter2]

I'd rather loot his corpse.

Would I steal his wallet? Yes, but not because I feel obligated to, but becuase it would be fun.

 

[CoverYourHead]

Well of course! It's a crime I can commit without feeling the slightest bit guilty. I imagine it might be worth something at a museum some day too.

 

[Glademaster_v1legacy]

Yes Yes I would and it would hilarious in fact I would then proceed to stalk him to watch him in his misery.

 

[Ramona Flowers]

Probably, but just so I could use it as my own.

Mine is burnt-out.

 

[Manicotti]

I would totally do it. And then I would replace it with a fake wallet that had a picture of a badly-drawn stick figure with the words, "My name eez Adolf und I am un art-eest, derp a derp a derp" written overhead.

 

[xdgt]

Hell yeah, screw the bastard's day and get 70 year old marks that would be expensive nowadays for historical value.

 

[GWarface]

I would just run up to him and pull his pants down... And then steal his wallet...

This question makes me think of the intro to Red Alert 1... (actually just played it on my ps1)

 

[child of lileth]

I would for bragging rights, but that's basically it.

 

[infinity_turtles]

Not morally obligated, as I find the idea of moral obligations silly, but I'd definitely do it.

 

[Bloody Sun Boy]

I wouldn't feel obligated morally to do it, i would be more inclined to put something in his wallet like a note saying 'I am from the future, attack Britain and you will lose the war... and your pants ' or something like that to try and freak him out.

 

[AWAR]

I would also take some nazi paraphernalia and one of those sweet luger pistols with me ;D

 

[Rarhnor]

No

If you asked me to kill him however...

 

[TheFacelessOne]

Yes.

For lulz and 'cause a need few marks...girlfriend sucked up all my money. Like a vacuum cleaner...

 

[Baron Von Evil Satan]

No moral obligation. It's just be cool. That and some other Nazi stuffs to sell to a museum.

 

[rokkolpo]

well...no.

i don't think i would.
i'm lazy like that.

 

[Break]

That's... That's a really interesting question. It's made my day. Thank you for sharing that with us.
