assuming that a liing political head of state (not mr. bush........)?

Question

was standing in front of you in a dark alley and you had a 357 at hand. knowing with 100% certainty for supernatural reasons that you would never be caught. would you shoot him? (i must remind you that it is illegal to say you would kill mr. bush if your in the u.s., so no, we are not talking about mr. *****)



if a different person (ex: mr. bush) had a heart attack in the very same alley and you did not have the 357, would you make any attempt to revive him (unless your a medical professional you have no legal obligation to do so) ?

Answer 1

Thou shall not kill - is one of the Ten Commandments. Thus, do not kill even if there are no witnesses.

For failure not to help a dying person, you be charged of a crime under the Penal Law. In this connection, you are duty-bound to help someone who is under a heart attack.
