REDJOHNNYMIKE Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 I'm just curious, would someone mind killing me for a little while? I can never get very far with my research in the chatbox before people get all creeped out. Simple question. Would you kill me? subquestion(a) why would you? subquestion(b) Why wouldn't you?

JediMaster12 Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 First off, why would you even ask that RJM? Is it part of a critique or something. To answer your question, Why would I want to kill you? You've done nothing to deserve it as far as I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REDJOHNNYMIKE Posted April 17, 2007 Author Share Posted April 17, 2007 A critique? Just curious... Wether or not I have done anything doesn't really seem to matter. I've done many things. The question remains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BruceLee_Reborn Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Possibly. a)if you were threatening my life or the life of someone i cared about, about to bring around the total annihilation of the universe, that kind of thing. or a sith:) b)I wouldn't for the Bible says "though shall not murder", and because you haven't done any of the previously mentioned evils.

REDJOHNNYMIKE Posted April 17, 2007 Author Share Posted April 17, 2007 Didn't threaten anyone, no dastardly intentions, just standing here, alone with you. Would you do it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nancy Allen`` Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Why would we want to? Are you a murder, terrorist, pedophile, anything like that? If not I'd have no reason to be, but if so I would, gladly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REDJOHNNYMIKE Posted April 17, 2007 Author Share Posted April 17, 2007 I'm not. I'm just here with you, and you have any means to kill me if you so wish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REDJOHNNYMIKE Posted April 17, 2007 Author Share Posted April 17, 2007 Not exactly, just killed, for no reason, or some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tk102 Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 I would not kill you. Why? Because there would have to be a great deal of motivation for me to act in such a way. In fact, I intend to never in my life be in such a motivated situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REDJOHNNYMIKE Posted April 17, 2007 Author Share Posted April 17, 2007 @TK, Why would you need so much motivation? It doesn't take much to pull a trigger, or slip a knife between a couple ribs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tk102 Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Because I value life, especially human life. Yours included. Even if I didn't, it takes even less effort to do nothing than it does to pull a trigger. Some motivation is required to overcome inertia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REDJOHNNYMIKE Posted April 17, 2007 Author Share Posted April 17, 2007 What value could it have? If I was willing to let you kill me, I don't value it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tk102 Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Who else would be around to make a thread like this? Hmm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REDJOHNNYMIKE Posted April 17, 2007 Author Share Posted April 17, 2007 Well considering that I hadn't seen one made yet, I'd say someone who hasn't arrived yet, or has simply not yet produced the proper motivation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jae Onasi Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 No, I wouldn't kill you because a. I'd lose my license to practice if I committed a felony b. I would look like The Great Pumpkin in those flourescent orange jumpsuits and that would be ridiculous c. My kids would be given swirlies at school once other kids found out I was singing Jailhouse Rock in the jailhouse, and c. Cause I like you, and I just am not in the habit of killing people I like.

tk102 Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Everyone is certainly capable of murder-- that's given by your premise. But of course just because you're capable of something doesn't mean you necessarily act upon it. Every action has consequences. The consequences of murder are huge. You would be dead. Everyone who knows you would be affected. I would be a murderer -- a tilte I would wear for the rest of my life and I would either get life sentence in prison or the death penalty. Or even if I didn't get caught, I would know forever that I had crossed a line and could never go back. My actions could never be fully repaid. Everything has been lost and nothing has been gained. To ask whether I would willingly shoulder all these consequences without providing any motivation in return... well the answer "no" will just have to suffice.

REDJOHNNYMIKE Posted April 17, 2007 Author Share Posted April 17, 2007 You wouldn't be subject to any laws, absolutely no one else would know about it. In this situation, I would already be on a tight schedule for death, and would even offer forgiveness if it was desired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emperor Devon Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Are you still incapable of feeling any pain, being missed by loved ones, and your or anyone else suffering any negative effects from this? I'd still say no. Even if you or no one else suffers for it, I'd still be violating my own morals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REDJOHNNYMIKE Posted April 17, 2007 Author Share Posted April 17, 2007 Missed, no. External negative effetcs, no. Any pain would only lie in the method of dispatch. It could be painless or quite excruciating, depending on your motivations. You may use any method you like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagobahn Eagle Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 No, I wouldn't kill you. I don't even kill rapists. And quite frankly, this thread scares me. If you're contemplating suicide in some form or another, I strongly advise you to seek help in the form of a psychologist or even a phone service. I don't know where you live, but there is bound to be some free line you can call. Your local Red Cross will probably maintain one, and there may be a Christian one, too or something. Grief is a pretty terrible thing, which is why I'm so incredibly strongly opposed to suicide and euthanasia. Not to mention you only live once, and that most or all hardships pass with time.

SilentScope001 Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 I'm just curious, would someone mind killing me for a little while? I can never get very far with my research in the chatbox before people get all creeped out. Gee. You think? Would you kill me? No. subquestion(b) Why wouldn't you? 1. It's against the law. If I kill you, and I get caught, the law will kill me. (Assumption: I wanna live.) 2. Society has brainwashed me to believe that killing people without reason is wrong. (Assumption: I have no reason to kill you.) 3. I waste energy killing you that I could use...well...doing something much more productive. Like watching TV.

Dagobahn Eagle Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 subquestion(a) why would you?That, friend, is possibly the best question I've heard all year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jae Onasi Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Well RJM, if you were standing in front of me actually asking me to kill you, I'd pull out my cell phone and call 911 to get you into help. People are getting creeped out because they think you're really wanting to die--you might want to clarify that for all the rest of us readers. Killing is a fundamental violation of someone's right to live, and it's not my prerogative to take someone else's life. It's an ultimately selfish act--the killer is in essence saying 'your very presence in life offends me'. There are far better ways of handling that situation.
