Serious Question: What does it feel like to kill someone?

[Zebo]

Premeditated, It depends on the individual like anything else concering morality. If you were brought up not to love the self and your fellow man and all that other good humanist/religous stuff it would be nothing more tramatizing than squashing a bug.

Second Degree, It would depend how pissed off you were, might actually feel good to kill the guy who raped your mother.

In war its differnent because it's either you or him usually and it's easier to deal with with that fact in mind.

I havn't killed anyone... yet but Sean Hannity has it commin'

It's easy enough to find out if you have the balls. Just join the Army or Marines and volunteer for the most dangerous MOS they have. You will be well trained to kill people and then sent off to do so.

After you find out how it feels come back here and let us know whether or not you want to share the feeling.

Exactly. There are certain questions to which you aren't entitled to be given the answer without paying a price.

Alternatively, there are a hundred books about the realities of war written by combat veterans.

what type of killing are you interested in?

read the accounts of snipers in vietnam and you will come across some 'good' descriptions.

listen to kip kinkels' confession and you will know another side

we are raised to respect life, some people learn this well, others don't. Those who do I reckon die inside when they kill. Others enjoy it, and need it.

killing is personal, it's different for everyone.

if after having found the information about the snipers and having listened to kip kinkels voice you do not find yourself satisfied I suggest a psychiatrist and some tests.

good luck

So what if I wanted to join the seals/NYPD or some other organization which may require me to kill someone (Or lethal force the PC term), I'm not entiled to make an informed decision if I couold deal with killing someone? You know there are guys suffering today because of the shock from Veitenm.


EDIT: if anything killing people should be talked about, it might actually put a human face and emotional account to all the killing we do as a nation. But now it's like counter strike. Ive actually heard some guys on the news cheering about it after a 2000 pound bomb is dropped on a human target from 30.000ft.

You'll never know until/unless you just make the decision and do it just like hundreds of thousands/millions of men have before you.

It's your choice and it isn't an easy one, is it?

Do you have the balls?

..............and there are 90 year olds still suffering today from the shock of "D Day".

Of all the people (uncles) that I know for a fact actually killed people in WWII, Korea and Nam, not one wants to talk about it. No sane person sits arround the fire talking about the joys of taking anothers life.

For all the fun we have here, this is a BBS. A nice little computerized world. If you want to know what it feels like, you have to ask the right person at the right time and be watching their face and listening to their voice, not just what they say. Even then you cant know.

Very true.

My father was a Marine in Vietnam and he killed many people. He hates to talk about it and those thoughts still give him horrible nightmares.

Well said.

You will be waiting a long time to hear any vet give you the answer.

Edit: If you desire a life of adventure then you have to be ready to take the emotional and physical consequences that come with that life of adventure.

It still does'nt change he fact lots of guys can't/don't and the had the balls to join the marines and are now basically dealing with deamons every day. Should'nt they have been given some account before hand?

No. That isn't the way life works.

If you are forced at some point into a life where you must kill others in order to survive you will learn what it is that you want to know.

If you desire the adventurous life where people kill each other, then you will have to make the decision to go and trust your instincts.

 

[DJSnairdA]

I know of someone who does one of those self defence courses (i think it was jiu jitsu) and he said he had to kill someone once in self defence. He didn't particularly like it, but he said he had no choice unless he wanted to die..

Ridiculus. We talk about emotional issues everyday on daytime TV sexuality, love, religion why should killing someone be any different.?.

I don't know, and I think watching someone die by your own hands would probably be one of the worst feelings in existance.

The largest thing I've killed was a female sparrow with a BB gun.. I was like 14

It was a horrible experience... We were shooting beer cans with a friends bb gun, and suddenly a small brown thing caught my eye in a nearby tree. My friend saw it too, and said "I bet you can't hit that bird" or something like that. I lined the sights up her. She hadn't done anything wrong.. and she surely didn't realize that she was about to die as she sat there, picking insects off the tree.. Most likely for a nest full of chicks somewhere. I thought about it for what seemed like a long time, and pulled the trigger. I don't know why I did it, but I did. I saw the BB fly out of the gun, and in the background, there she was. That moment is frozen in my mind, probably forever. The picture of the BB about a foot from the gun, with the bird still alive in the background.

A millisecond later, she fell from her perch in the tree. We ran over to her, and she lay on the ground, audibly gasping for air, spinning herself around in small circles as she flailed her wings and feet. At that point, I realized I had done a terrible thing.. Not only did I try and kill her, but I had failed.. and this poor creature was suffering greatly now. I knew what I had to do. As I picked her up, I saw that she was bleeding from a spot on her chest. I figured that I probably punctured one of its her sacs. As she struggled in my hand, gasping for air.. I grasped her head firmly, and flung her body towards the ground. She stopped moving, and lay limp in my hand, her neck broken. I dug a small hole in the ground, and burried her. let me tell you, I felt absolutely horrible... to the point of tears. I couldn't help but think that her babies could now be in jeopardy because of my senseless act.

The thing is, I've always loved birds, ever since I was a small child. I really don't know what posessed me to do that, but I'll never do it again.

I would hunt things for meat if I was trying to survive, but to kill or even hurt anything because it's "fun" is just wrong.

 

[Grasshopper27]

There is a huge difference between killing a person without purpose, and killing a person in self-defense.

If you go out and are able to kill someone in cold blood, then I just don't understand, nor do I want to.

If you're in a fight for your life, and the other person is trying to kill you, it becomes easier to justify. At that point, the other person has given up their right to live by trying to end your life, your options become quite limited.

Doesn't mean you won't feel like crap about it, but that is what makes you good and him evil.
