Would you kill two strangers to save one person you love?

Question

how far would you go to save the person you love. would you let love blind you from the difference between right and wrong

Answer 1

When someone threatens the ones you love there is no right and wrong, there is only you and them. Ask someone their opinion of paedophiles before and after they have children. It will have hardened.

To answer your question, anyone who threatens my family is history. Period.

Answer 2

I would not. I believe that nature and destiny should take its course but then again certain circumstances around the situation might also lead me to do otherwise

Answer 3

GOSH

of cos i would  

Answer 4

the person who knows what true love is...cannot kill.

love

Pluto

Answer 5

yes i will. i would seriously do anything for my love.

Answer 6

If 2 strangers were threatening someone I love, I would kill them on the spot. If 2 strangers were threatening another complete stranger and I thought it was wrong, I would do the same thing. What kind of scenario are you thinking of?

Answer 7

When it comes to love, real love, the love that staggers you with its intensity - I don't think the same boundries of right and wrong apply as to the real world.  Nothing about love is rational, and if someone you love is going to get hurt then, in my opinion, different rules apply.  Matters of the heart and the mind are as different as night and day.  I can guarentee that if someone tries to harm my children in ANY way shape or form, I would not hesitate to harm someone - to kill someone, be it 2 strangers or 200, it doesn't matter to me.  If someone hurt my boyfriend, I would WANT to kill them, but I don't think I would.  Because those are two different kinds of love - its an almost holy love I have for my children, I think any mother understands that, and a MORE rational love I have for my boyfriend.  Love is blinding and nothing about it justifies any type of rational thinking.

Answer 8

not sure... don't think so... but not sure... imagines we'd have a hard time loving after killing... don't think we'd ever forgive self... probably depend on a lot of little things like blood sugar levels...  

Answer 9

No. Those two 'strangers' also have people that love them and whom they love.  

Answer 10

yessss ofcourse

Answer 11

Hey griffs! No, we cannot allow love to blind us between the difference of right and wrong. Those are crimes of passion. To save ones love from imminent danger is another thing entirely, but given the laws in the U.S. we must be careful how far we go, to not use very excessive force. The reason I say very excessive force is because the courts are very detailed about how these things are interpreted. For instance, if someone "hits" on someone you love, we cannot take a baseball bat and hit them over the head. The other scenario is clear and eminent danger, such as during an attempted rape, aggravated robbery or true threat (like, for instance, someone comes at your girlfriend or wife with a knife). In those cases we use necessary force. For something less than that we have to be very careful, because things are easily twisted around. But, to be pragmatic, yes: use the necessary force for the situation using your best judgment possible.

Answer 12

Hmmm, that's hard for me to say, but probably not.

Answer 13

i think the only person i would do that for is my little brother. we do argue a lot but i love him too much.

Answer 14

No, not if they're lives were in danger. However, I might kill one person I love to save two strangers. You never know what someone's life will do.

Answer 15

the person i love? yes. though i would not take pride in, want to, or having any sort of fun doing it, although thats just me, i cant say for sure that i would do that, but i know i would lean towards doing it, unless of course, they were children...im not sure about that, as children are so innocent.

Other people may not know, or be sure about who they love and therefor may not do it, and in my opinion, there is no right or wrong answer/choice here, although saving the one you love would be quite selfish, as you dont even know who these people are or what they've done in their life.Like i said there really isnt a right or wrong answer as either way somebody is dying.

Answer 16

that would have to be the hardest question ive ever tried to answer. For my siblings i think i would, especially if the strangers were older people..

.

.

for love between myself and a guy i dont think id be able to do that, the guilt would be too much to handle because ive seen from experience how much the loss of a loved one can kill their family
