If you had to kill a person in self-defense, how do you think you'd feel about that later? Any remorse?

Answer 1

face battle head, no fear, no doubt.

I you doubt the decision of killing someone, you won't be able to and the atacker will kill you.

I probably would feel regret, fear all these things.

But I would kill without thought in that second.

Death is not a sad thing, it is merely a rebirth, don't you see. I would have had to learn from killing someone, and the attacker would have to learn from being killed for his own foolishness.

i would feel remorse, but not for the attackers life, no.

Much more selfcentered.

I would have messed up my own aura and my own energy because I just messed up an entire univerese in the attacker.

Because I kill nowm, tomorrow will have it's concequences

Answer 2

Being a martial artist, this is something I've giving some thought to. I'm quite capable of killing someone... or not. I could merely subdue an attacker, which many (probably most) martial artists would say is the moral choice. But I completely disagree. If someone attacks me in a manner I perceive as life-threatening (with a knife, gun, club, etc), I would feel no regret in killing them. They chose that outcome for themselves. By trying to increase my level of technical precision so as not to kill them I potentially increase the danger to myself. Disarming someone with a knife or trying to put them in a hold is more difficult than simply throwing a one-knuckle strike into their throat or temple, and I'm not going to risk it for their sake. Besides that, this is a very aggresive and dangerous person. If I don't permanently end that threat and they go out later and hurt or kill someone, that's partially my fault. So no, I wouldn't feel bad at all about killing someone in self-defense.

Answer 3

Even if you don't go to prison for it, you will most likely have to sit through a trial or at least a period of intense worry about the consequences. If you don't feel remorse, then you're not human. If I get attacked by a person with a weapon, especially around cameras, then probably not.

Answer 4

I've no doubt that I'd kill in self-defence. It's something to make me ponder a bit afterward. The laws relating to lethal self-defence are so corrupted, so biased against Whites, so weighted in favor of racial minorities, that a White person can easily incur heavy legal penalties for doing nothing really wrong. The legal situation is at the point where, even though I'd killed justifiably in self-defence, I would not trust the law to see the facts of the matter, and probably I would take steps to conceal my honest deed just as a murderer would do to conceal his foul one.

Answer 5

No. If you're going to choose to kill a person, even in self-defense, then you should resign yourself to that decision or not go through with it. But I would be more likely to kill someone in the defense of others than in the defense of myself.

Answer 6

I wouldn't kill unless the person had the capability to use lethal force himself (armed). Otherwise, I would go for incapacitation (negating his ability to continue fighting).

If I had to kill, I wouldn't feel any remorse later. When it comes down to it, it was that person's choice to attack, and their choice to use deadly means. If the person hadn't made that choice, then they wouldn't have started the situation, and therefore still be alive.

Answer 7

If I absolutely had no choice I personally wouldn't hesitate, but guilt and remorse would be bound to follow; it's the way we are made I suppose.

Answer 8

If one of us has to die, it sure as hell won't be me. I wouldn't have ANY remorse at all, regardless of who it was. In self-defense, it doesn't matter.

Answer 9

Probably... It depends. If it was someone who was after my future kids/husband or if it was a rapist I would NOT! Neither if the person tried to kill anyone in my family/anyone of my relatives or anyone of my friends.

Answer 10

I'd feel kind of like a murderer but i guess if it's self defence then may be it'd be okay what have you done it before
