Noo.. maybe.. depends.
If that person I had to kill had all kinds of diseases, had no family members left or anyone who would miss him or her... Yes, I would.

Yes easily without a doubt.
me and mine matter most
it would matter how much I care about the person, but yeah i would kill to save loved ones.
Yes, I'd kill for, and die for, my companion.
Utilitarian here; depends on who for whom. Kill a stranger? Doubt I'll have too much of a problem with it unless I get to thinking about their possible value. But I'm skinny as heck so I'll need a gun anyway.
I couldnt see myself ever hurting someone unless its self defence. And a life is a life, no matter who it is.
Fuck yes I would, I'd kill an army to save her.
yes
I definitely would.
I'd say I would but honestly, at the last second I would be hesitant. Talking about taking a life here. If time becomes a factor though, I'd probably wouldn't have time to think about that and just kill.
if i could do it without them even noticing definitely
If I had to, I would. Without question.
Yes... Why would I want someone who i love die rather than someone who is endangering that person's life?
If the man, say, didn't have anything to do with endangering the person i love but he/she would still die if I didn't kill the man then I'd still do it but probably be mentally scared. Of course, absurd hypothetical situations are just absurd hypothetical situations.
Yes, but I'd have issues later.
I wish I could be all righteous and say that I would never take another life, but that'd be lying. Yep, I admit I would kill another person to save someone I love. Not exactly proud of it.
either way somebody would die, so yes, I would rather that other person than the one I love
They won't feel pain for long.. because you're killing them.
When you kill someone, they die.
Yes
I don't really know because imagine if you were on the other side.
Someone would kill you because they want to save someone, and you don't even know what's going on.
Someone would die anyway, so why shouldn't you do what is best for yourself?
I dont care about people i dont love, since i am better than everyone else all that matters is me and if someone i loved was in danger that means who ever i dont know well has to die.
I'd like to think I'd be capable of it, I wouldn't feel good about having to do so however, probably rationalising that either way someone was going to die and it might as well not have been someone close to me. Doesn't make it any better for the other person however.
Not the kind of thing you really think about, I'm pretty sure if it happened to one of us, no one would save the stranger and no one would even ask themselves who they should save.
So yes, definitly. Hell if it's someone I really love I'd even kill two.
I would but if i came down to it i would rather kill 15 people that were given the same offer then one innocent person.
Yes. I would. We are all equal, but I believe If I can put my own life on the line to save another who could be something greater than I, then I will do it no matter the cost.
Depends on who it is ,but mostly a yes. I'd make sure it was quick and painless.
So many pascifist ass pussies here its sickening. Its like you people say fuck you to reasonable thinking and logic just to prove you're some sort of expert at avoiding any form of violence or conflict; even if the scenario includes your own loved ones about to be exterminated. FUCKING pathetic. Its really sad how spineless some Europeans have gotten..I love your peoples continent so much but I just wanna slap you people so bad for being such spineless VAGINAS.
This.
Wow, that's a pretty.... dense.. view.
Yes I would kill for somebody I loved.
Probably not
Seeing as there's nothing after death, killing isn't really justified EVER. (assuming that the other person wasn't going to be directly and intentionally responsible for the death of others)
This is just terrible, what kind of a person is willing to kill thousands of people for their own selfish desires?
Edited:
America! FUCK YEAH!
As far as I'm concerned, if someone attacks me or someone I care about with the intention of taking our lives, they have forfeited their own. So yes, I would, with no hesitation.
Yes. I have never seen killing as inherently wrong, killing is only wrong in a given set of circumstances. There are in fact just wars, and killing criminals is just too IMO.
From the possible scenarios where I'd have to choose to directly kill someone in order to save someone I love would be the person that I love being attacked by said person.
In that case I would not hesitate to kill them.
Haha..I see what you did there..you assumed because I'm an advocate of personal responsibility I Must be some "amuricas the bestest" Bible thumping nationalist cunt. WRONG
Trust me Guy..id rather be living in southern Spain with the rest of my family than in this retarded ass place.
I have to say yes, I would.
If I saw my girlfriend in danger and I could reduce or diminish that danger in any way, I would do whatever it takes to do so. Whether that is claiming another life or not, I'd do anything in my power to make her safe and to keep her that way, and deal with the consequences at a later time. It's the overriding passion that is only really understandable to anyone who has really been deeply romantically engaged with someone. Logic, morality and common sense go out the window when you're tasked with protecting the one you love.
Lets put it like this. If I would kill a few thousand to obtain a philosophers stone (FMA reference), then surely I can kill one to save a loved one.
I'd kill someone if it meant saving my lover's life. I'd most likely feel horrible afterwards though, because pretty much what I've done is give what I almost went through to another group of people and their dead friend.
Edited:
If I really had to, I would hope I could make it quick and painless.
Maybe something like chloroform cloth, then inject them with something that would kill them painlessly
Edited:
Just checked wikipedia, chloroform can make a person feel no pain, and then giving them enough kills them
Good question, it all depends on the context.
A. Forced to kill an innocent person to save someone you know : Terrible situation for the other, they are completely unaware and they don't deserve to die. It all depends on your morality.
B. Someone is trying to kill someone you know: Obviously you kill them or let whomever be killed.
I personally would have a hard time doing the former, it would all depend on the context, like I said. If it was someone innocent I don't think I could do it.
