I'd save the girl and kill 10 soldiers - purely because I want to save the largest amount of innocent lives

So... Why are you killing ten people instead of one? I mean ten soldiers? In all likelihood only one or two of them is combat arms.

Shoot the demon until I am unable to shoot, presumably it either dies or kills me. If it does neither, then I will wait it out until I die or it leaves. Thusly, I have minimized casualties, and if I live, I can say I fought a demon and lived!(not that anyone'd believe me)

Well I mean, this is a purely hypothetical situation. In hindsight my response was a little inappropriate, but like the US military is pretty evil.....

Stop. Don't try to prove your anarchist ideological purity by talking about killing soldiers like it's no loss. These are people in one of the most traumatizing professions in existence. Most of them are lower class and looking for one of the most extensive support networks the state provides. These are people. They have their reasons for being there. The institution of the military has proven mostly harmful, but the moment we forget that there human beings that compose is it is the moment all the rhetoric becomes meaningless.

The 10 soldiers, of course.
10 Soldiers will go on to protect our country, and could very well be just as "innocent" as the girl, never having actually killed. Or, those they killed could have had intention to kill even more people. The random American girl contributes far less to the nation, society, and worldwide peace. I believe the only reason that the girl has so many people saving her is the use of the word "girl" which is usually tied to words and ideas like "innocence" or "purity", had the OP said "woman" or "female" there would likely be far less people selecting that option.

Just because you think the military is evil and corrupt doesn't mean the average soldier is - they're people too. The girl could be ten times more evil. He never said which girl, you could have just killed ten innocent soldiers who have never even seen combat and saved the life of a serial killer.

Nevermind that combat experience isn't a requisite for good or evil.
