is it okay to shoot someone if they cheat on you or have sex with your spouse?

Question

im serious.... you know the song:

"hey joe, where you goin with that gun in your hand
im going down to shoot my old lady, you know i caught her messin around with another man"

...surely anyone who has ever had their heart broken can relate. ...i mean i dont think id ever shoot my ex... but if someone did, i think id be like well, i can see where he/she was coming from. ...wadya think? shooting people okay in that situation?

nawww, i dont know about you guys. im talking when someone really truly deeply kills you. when they break your heart so bad that it could ruin the rest of your life because you might not ever be able to love or live to anywhere near your potential again. in essence, they take away your very life.

im not talking about in the heat of the moment. im talking about if youve had a while to think it over. ...months... years..and youre not just blaming all of your problems on this person but trying to think rationaly about the causes and effects of your life.

like i said, i dont think id ever shoot my ex...but i can sure understand why someone would

these are boring answers. ...the thought of prison had NEVER corssed my mind until you brought it up. ....BOOORRRINNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!

cmon yahoosters, you can do better than that. ...i guess i just take things a little more seriously than most people.

okay this isnt a trivial thing if you know what im talking about.

everyone thinks they have lived such a life. everyone thinks they have seen the most and been through the hardest and overcome the worst and loved the deepest. ......its annoying. how is the real reality supposed to get through when all of humanity is clouding it up with their BS? ....so like 1 in 100 of you is still folloing me right? i just think if you understood precisely what i was talking about you most definatly would not considor it trivial.

its not creepy question either. its a perfectly natural question.

maxy, lets pretend for a couple seconds that we arent 13 years old and that this was a long term relationship of love. obviously if you loved this person you would not think of them as a loser or undeserving of you. ...so theres that. now secondly, if you want to live your life floating on air and never thinking deep or feeling deep and just la la la....thats cool...not everyone is made the same way. but you are missing out on some serious good feelings. if a person could just choose to feel how they wanted as you suggest then drug companies wouldnt be making a fortune off antidepresants. its not quite that easy.

no not everything in life changes. ive alwayd like doritos, i always will. the sun always rises in the east and sets in the west. ive always liked computers, touching, music, driving...and i always will. not everything in life changes and i guess im wasting my time trying to explain my feelings to you because you will never have them.

anyway, its quite a popular song

you know. ...and btw so is guns and roses "i used to love her"..... and im sure a whole bunch of others.

btw, you do realize you called me stupid right? ive killed people for less. HA! just kidding. ...or am i?

allright Bob-O! *high five!... 10 points for you pal

philo that is a good philosophy that you lived happily before her and you coudl do it again.

however, i think you could have constructed a better argument and not been a jerk at the same time. first of all, i was not saying that i had loved the deepest or was hurt the worst. i was simpy saying that everyone thinks they go through so much and you cant talk to anyone about anything because they think theyve had it worse.

to say that everyone feels exactly the same way at exactly the same intensity and exactly the same level of intelligence is just stupid. so to say that one person is just like everyone else is stupid.. cause its not true. you look pretty old in that picture, i think you would have picked up that bit of wisdom in all your years.

anyway, between your insults you did manage to answer my question. im not sure if you did it on purpose or it just happened to be a part of your childish name calling answer. ....you said the idea that murdering someone would balance

out the hurt of the partner is infintale and....dangerously criminal. we wont talk about dangerously criminal because that is stupid to even use because of how obvious it is. plus im not even sure what dangerously criinal means. ...so we'll just use infantile.

there is no doubt that the motives of someone who commits such a crime could be partly infantile. ...that is one way. but considor someone who takes their time and thinks things over in his/her head about what happened.

i know a guy like this: he works 12 hours a day 7 days a week. bought a house and found a woman and they started a little family. well, he was gone all the time and she wasnt even working...how greatful she should have been. anyway, before too long she started ******* somebody else cause this guy was never home. but this guy didnt want to kick her out because that would mean kicking out his child. and so she stayed living there... and he watched her go out the door to be with another man. now im not even

involved in that situation and i can feel pain just thinking about it.

we kill people for killing other people. we kill people for rape. we kill people for defecting in war. ...im just thinking of reasons why our society has deemed it acceptable to kill people. so why not kill this woman for such a terrible crime against the most sensitive part of this man? if he shot her... id be like well she had it coming.

anyway, i didnt really want to talk about this subject for so long but all f you immediatly starting calling me stupid and infantile for even suggesting this.

-.-: although i think yours is the best answer i already promised Bob the points :(

i think everyone has their limits and could be pushed over the edge under the right circumstances. most people dint like to think outside of a teeny weeny wittle box though. ...although they cant cause thats all they know.

what i liked best about your answer was that you said "be honest". the first step to undrstanding yourself is being honest.



I've thought about it.
And I'd kill someone for less, a certain amount of disrespect.
That's why I don't own a gun. I'm an animal when my heart is pumping with rage.

Yay for the internet.
Be honest, just don't tell me where you live.

Answer 1

If I killed everyone that had sex with my ex wife, they would be making movies about me. It would be one of those mass murderer movies. And I am not talking about after the divorce either.

Answer 2

Yes, you are a sensitive man, and the pain that you experience is bad. Anger and rage are animal propensities that are held in check by a power you may not be aware of. Sensitive, good people do not kill. They know better inside. So kick out all your thoughts regarding revenge and evil. You can do this. The pain will cease, and you will find yourself stronger and better for the experience, although right now you wont believe this. This woman will end up paying her debt to divine love in ways that you wont know anything about, and it is not your business anyway how others suffer for what they have done. Get a grip. You are complete as is and your true happiness is never based on another human being, as you will learn. You have the power in you to master evil, so do it now, and enjoy good later. I hope this helps to realign your thought, kind of like a front end alignment on a car. One other thing, as you grow, you must forgive so that you can move on in life. You can do this. Also, do not let the troubles of this world ever chip away at your Christian character. There are many “seeming” powers that would like to take you down, but they can’t.

Answer 3

welll why dont you just go ahead and answer your own question???? because it sounds like you either want someone to agree with you or are waiting... for some answer you have already come up with in your head

anyway i suppose i could understand WANTING to do it.... but really you choose if you LET someone distroy your life to that degree where you will never "be the same" besides everything in life changes you everyday... why would you want to be the same?... and would you prefer never knowing that you had someone so undeserving of your love?
wouldnt you be glad to know... yeah you just wasted your time ... life money on this person but now you can find someone more deserving ... maybe you never took the time to know the person who could go out and break your heart like that.... why would you want to spend the rest of your life grieving over such a "loser".... anyway ... no its not okay... its stupid

Answer 4

The belief that no one has loved as deeply as you or been hurt as deeply as you is pure junior high, and the belief that your hurt is in some way balanced by someone else's death is both infantile and dangerously criminal. Grow up. You're just not that special. EVERYONE gets hurt. The measure of your humanity is how you deal with it. In my case, the one I nearly killed was myself, but then I came to my senses. I lived a very happy life before I met her, and I knew I could do it again.

Answer 5

It is always Ok to shoot someone if you can deal with the necessary consequences of that action.

The consequences of the obvious:

Mental anguish
Physical Incarceration, and the resulting seperation from friends/family
Possible execution by the state
Monetary losses

And the not so obvious:

You would be stating, through your actions, that it is Ok for society to act as you have. Would you want a society where everybody acted in such a manner? I think not.

Answer 6

No, it's never ok to shoot or to kill someone. I know it hurts that bad but you will end up hurting a lot more people than the person you shoot including yourself.. Picture yourself in Prison 20 years from now and just getting out and trying to start life over again. Not worth it lol!

Answer 8

You'd have to wiegh the consequences of said action and decide if it is worth it for you on a personal level. As for me personally I would never shoot someone over something so trivial. Not worth my time.

Answer 9

Dissappointing & hurtful. Do you have children to think of. Murder it would be & spend a life time in prison isn't the answer. If there are children, she is their mother & they would be damaged for life. Get a divorce & Find a new life would be healthier.

Answer 10

No! Its never okay to kill someone else. It is a very sad and controlling life if you can't bounce back eventually from that heart break.
