Would you kill a man to save a thousand?

[The Valencian Blade]

Alright, so its an age-old question. Let me propose this hypothetical situation.
You have a lunatic dictator, let's call him X. X has killed millions of people in his country, and will kill more. You are given the opportunity to kill him, and thus save millions, but in so doing, you must kill an innocent guy, Bob. Bob's a completely average man. Married, has two kids, works hard, reads the sports before business section of the paper. Do you do it?

[Greed and Death]

Depends on the consequences for me.
If I will end up in jail then No.

If society recognizes my sacrifice and flings millions of dollars in currency toward me, then yes.

[Celestial Divinities]

Why do I have to kill Bob?

[Maurepas]

depending on the situation, and various other things, probably...

[The New Everlasting]

Only if he looked at me wrong.

[Tybra]

It depends, is X really such a bad guy? Evil is as they say subjective, for all i know he's been prosecuting all the bad guys and ending crime.

Would we assume X is really such a bad or evil guy then yes i would kill Bob. Then again i would kill humanity to save humanity and have no problem with killing millions or even billions of people to save humanity.

Reads the sports before the business section?

Sure. That bitch is going down. Crucifixion's too good for 'em.

[Republica Espanola]

If I could sacrifice myself, rather than Bob, I would.
If I couldn't, I'd kill Bob.

I will try to save both. Because if I do kill Bob, people will say the ends will justify the means. Which they rarely do.

Sure. I'll toss in the rest of his family, too, if it'll get me some sort of bonus.

Of course not..

[Fnordgasm 5]

I've always hated Bob...

[Kamsaki]

I'd ask Bob for his thoughts on the matter. If he doesn't mind dying for the sake of all, I'll do it and make sure he goes down in history as the real hero. If he's a bit non-plussed, I'll do what I can to do the job without killing him, and probably fail and get killed myself, but heck, maybe that'll show Bob that it's sometimes worth putting your life on the line, and he'll inspire someone else to try again in the future.

[Flameswroth]

Could one of the people the dictator killed in the future be me, or my family? If so, I'd off Bob for sure. But if it's just like, a dictator in Africa or something, I see no reason why Bob and I should get involved. So I wouldn't do it in that case.

Its not batman

[The Araucania]

depend on the case.

[Goldsaver]

Yes. Sacrifice One Innocent to save millions? Hell yeah.

[Khithali]

Well I'd know I should do it. Being a utilitarian means that I think that killing one person to save a thousand is by far the better thing to do. Whether I could bring myself to kill someone else, though, I don't know, and I'm not exactly eager to put that to the test.

[LOL ANARCHY NUBZ]

Duh. Fuck Bob. It's all relative anyway.

[Kirrix]

Bob gets it. I'll try to make it as quick and painless as possible, but asshats need stopping.

[Groko]

Yeah, I'd prefer that I died instead, though. (No kids)

[Novograd IV]

i'd make it quick.

the kind of 3 month planning, get him in a coffee shop, killed without trace of the murderer job, no fingerprints, no suspicion, LOTS of connections to perform recon.

unless i was ALOWED TO KILL HIM.
THEN i'd get him in a dark alley, explain WHY i was killing him, then a 50. cal to the brain.

[Republica Espanola]

I've always hated Bob...

And now they'll probably offer me Bob's old job.

[The Parkus Empire]

Yes.
