Would you kill someone for a Billion dollar?

The catch is that no one will find out what you did meaning there won't be any consequences.

Also amuse that killing is rather easy.

So would you

1.Random evil person.
2.Random person
3.Random good person

Rogue Jedi
How evil is the evil person?

Nephthys
1. Yes.
2. Yes.
3. Probably.

AbnormalButSane
It'd be hard to say unless I was actually in the situation. I could easily lie and say yes right now, but most people don't know what they'd do in those situations.

Symmetric Chaos
1) No
2) Maybe
3) Absolutely

jalek moye
So i know things about these people that make them good or evil?

It depends on your moral persuasion. Even if you had the billion dollars, would your conscience let you live with the fact that you killed another human being. Many people couldn't live with that kind of guilt...which would make it difficult to enjoy the money.

dadudemon
Evil person? Depends on the type of evil. Child rapist? F*ck yes. A person that murdered an entire family just to steal something? F*ck yes. One of the a**holes who caused the housing crisis? Maybe...depends on how complacent the person was about it. From there, it gets tougher to decide.


Evil? Easy.

Normal person? No.

Good person? No.



I would never kill a good or normal person for a billion dollars. No amount of money. But, if they were truly evil, you know...someone that should be on death row, anyway, yes: I'd save tax payers' dollars, man!

BlackZero30x
yes,yes and no

Autokrat
Hmm, now what if someone did the deed to the good person and then used the money to save starving children and their families? Setting up an organization dedicated to eradicating poverty, using the billion dollars as a starting money.

That aside, I'd kill the first two and might kill the third.

Juk3n
The Evil person, and then only if his actions were evil toward a member of my family. Murder is Murder, now im not a religious man, but just incase the Mussies & the Chritos are right, i won't kill for money. Id Kill for Justice though, God would understand, he wiped out the entire frickin populus minus Noah and his merry bunch.

1.Random evil person. Probably, but I'd have to know why he/she is "evil". I'd also consider the Complete Moron a candidate.
2.Random person. No.

Alpha Centauri
Nope, not worth it.

-Pr-
And not get caught? Yes.

Wild Shadow
easily yes.

evil, how evil? my warped reality and morality might question the how evil aspect of the person. i may not even kill him.. b/c he is being true to himself. also if he is hitler evil he might be beneficial to the world with the mass genocide of particular ppl... Cough* asians... he may be too important to kill. 50/50

random average person easy kill and no qualms have a beer party after the deed.

no such thing as a good person pure hypocrisy at its worse.. my righteous anger would have me killing them without question while eating a powdered donut.

the question really is how much is a single life worth or do certain benefits out weight the life of a single person.. kinda like would killing one person to save thousands be acceptable..

AsbestosFlaygon
1-3. YES! This would be a dream come true! This would be like GTA, except it happens in REAL LIFE!

Wild Shadow
i would grab some of my gear from my shadow box and gear up.. put on my shades cut my hair and do my best assassin dark clothed pose.. as i put my combat machete blade in the back of my belt loop.. hopefully i would get some silencers and twist them on... put on my coat and get to work.

jalek moye
depending on what the evil guy did, him. the others no

I would kill anyone, anytime, for any reason.

I've never cared that much for money.

A. Are we talking adolph hitler evil? Like... Is this person going to commit genocide? Does he have family? Is his family good and dependant on him? Man or woman? Obviously there are alot of factors.

B. Probably not. We're talking some random person who just lives and goes to work? No. Life is priceless.

C. What do you mean, good? Good like frollo from humpback or good like Ghandii? Good like a douche or good like walt kowalski? Are we talking someone who's going to save lives or someone who's just a self righteous prick?

at the kbr/ blackwater whatever name they are under and host of other international mercenary security companies eventually branch out independently until you have a large enough resume and wait for the great white kill contracts to come your way.

killing in africa and getting paid in diamonds might also help.

Original Smurph
Wow. People suck.

Also, no.

The question is "Would you kill someone for a billion dollars?". Even if they're evil, I'm not going to kill them for a billion dollars. If I'm given the opportunity to stop somebody from committing some 'evil' act (in a hypothetical 'there's no other way!' scenario), and stopping them kills them, sure, I'll kill them, but not because somebody promised me a billion dollars for doing it.

Of course, I'll accept the money (I'm not retarded), but it's not like my answer weighs on the sum promised to me.

Wild Shadow
i was just thinking of this dude when you said you take the money your not retarded.. this guy has donated almost all of his millions from his books and lives in a small modest home and lives off very basic monetary needs.

Original Smurph
Well, that's lovely and all, but I'm still going to take a billion dollars for an act I would do anyways, and certainly not for an act that I couldn't personally deal with having done, like killing some random.

Maybe "I'm not retarded" was poor phrasing. I still like money, is all.

I wish I would have got a billion dollars last time...

I was out $53 bucks for bleach and liquid hand soap, was up all night, and I even threw back my out.

always have an alibi just in case but me i am lazy i was at home playing video games or watching a show then i go on line and watch it or devo it...

also pick up your shell casings and wear gloves when loading the rounds. also make sure it is a random mark not connected to you.. easy breesy and yes no witnesses..

Assuming the "evil" and "good" adjectives are congruent with my own notion of each concept, my answers are as follows:

1. Yes, I'd kill this person.
2. If I get to decide after the random person is revealed to me, my answer isn't definite until that point. In all other scenarios, I would not kill this person.
3. I would not kill this person.

Scythe
Yes to all, I have no problem with morals.

No, not unless they were a threat to me or my family. In that case, I'd do it for free.

I hope half the people in this thread are just joking about killing random people for money or this world is even more ****ed up than I thought

inimalist
I'd be concerned about the money. One billion in cash is probably very difficult to move/store safely. The money could be wired, but a billion dollar transaction is going to catch someone's attention. If you spend it like you are a billionaire, you are going to have the tax man calling. If not, wishing to maintain such a lifestyle would undoubtedly require more murder for more billions.

So, in the end, I'm stuck with huge amounts of money I can't spend that is a constant threat to my personal and legal security, all for the 'privilage' of killing someone? even if they are evil?

While access to that kind of money might do a lot to reduce my moral concerns, it really does just pose an additional problem.

You get in through a series of shell companies in the form of nonsequential, unmarked bearer bonds that are e-mailed to your off-shore Swiss bank account.

even then, in the case of an audit, I need to account for any material possessions I have, so I can't go buy things even if swiss banks aren't co-operating with the gvt

however, international finance is something the Bush administration actually did attack with the PATRIOT act, and according to Misha Glenny, an expert on international crime, has been very successful at combating the type of money transfers you are talking about

I don't know about everyone else, but I'd fully intend to do good acts with my billion, like Autokrat suggested. I only need a few mills for myself anyway. That money could do alot more good than 1 measly person, especially an evil person, or a normal person given that most people are selfish arseholes who rarely help their fellow man. The good guy would give me pause though.

If you are of the belief that killing any of these people is wrong, is it actually less ****ed up because you use the money for "good" deeds?

Yes to all three. And if I wasn't caught, they'd be overpaying me. I'd do it for a few hundred. I'm not picky. I'll take what work I can get.

BloodRain
1. Yes. A bad person with money to spare is hardly ever good for anyone else.
2. Most likely not unless I become more dark in the future or am really desperate.
3. Nah, whatever this person does with the money is better then what I would.

Honestly dont think that id get much moral issues with 1. Besides, if I did theres always the option of hiring the best Psychiatrist to help that out.

It can refer to that, yes. It can also refer to strongly held beliefs which is more what I was playing at.

This is an interesting thread to me(kudos kgkg), and I'm actually surprised at some of the responses(provided they be sincere). As conceited as it may sound, I expected more answers to resemble my own.

No I would not. Only possible reason would be to protect the innocent, or maybe self defence. But to do it for money no way.

I donno, I'd fear going to he'll, if I knew he wasn't real hen sure why not

why would you fear hell since it isnt even a consequence of the bible that is just something churches and the vatican tell ppl with no shred of biblical reference unless you count revelations.. which many scholars till this date dispute it when compared to the rest of the bible.

i fear going to hell too, but i dont know man 1billion is alot of money

Warden
I'd fear it because I clearly don't know much about it. Dur.

Wild Shadow
technically hell is simply being away from god's presence.. dont sound so bad unless you think that is an excuse for everyone in hell to beat and torture each other which only the weak need to worry about but your dead and a spirit.. also its really one's own choice if you end up in there... i hear the biblical cosmic secret is to not ask for forgiveness but actually ask to not be there but with god..

Hm. Not quite. Most of the time its not referred to by name, but...

"Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels."

That's the KJV of Matthew 25:41.

"And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted to heaven, shalt be thrust down to hell....And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom."

That's the KJV of Luke, (chapters 10 and 16), which originally reads as Hades and not Hell, but Luke was Greek so that's understandable.


Not a Christian, but did want to point out that there's biblical evidence for Hell besides Revelations. stick out tongue

Warden
Thanks for making me feel better

Wild Shadow
the actual translation for hell would be sheol not hades or hell.. sheol which means mankind's common grave where all are dead or resting away simply from god's presence which some take it as hell.. making it is the worse thing that can happen..hence referred to as hell.

anyways cant dispute the whole god sending you into the flames but i can completely refute the concept by using original text from the old testament and its original translation.. reading

also an apostle talking and spouting doesn't make it biblical truth unless it comes straight from the divine beings like angels spirits.. main prophets like moses, emmanuel... god etc etc..

so luke, john and whomever can say whatever they want they don't know squat of the after life nor gods temperament nor is it true..

just my two cents.. also like to point out by then the romans had seriously influenced christian beliefs with hades and the concept of the after life of torment..

i'd do it for a minimum of $5 million.

if its a person that i would be thanked for after killing than sure.

Yes, to all three questions, only on the condition that I would get away scott free with no consequences. I mean, I'm a veteran of the OIF (Operation: Iraqi Freedom) "war" and I did what I had to do while I was there for 5 months: kill or be killed.

My conscience would be just fine, especially after becoming a billionaire.

i never blew you up and i also like to think i wasnt directly responsible for you being blown up.. i simply loaded the cannon tube and yelled fire.. if some one is to take the kill count it should be the guy who pulls the firing chord..

also their needs to be a distance to consider killing some one personally..

for example what if i am firing from a mile away i cant see who or what i am shooting how does that count.. it could be a number of the other battery lines..

anyways i did fill them out online but also the working rights forgot what they are called in my city/states also has to require employers to have on site applications not just online.. if you are denied a form it can be considered a form of discrimination and violation of the working rights thingy.. damn really wish i could remember the damn things name..

but yes, online fill them out but also going in person helps to secure a job..

thats when you ask for the person's name and come to check periodically and hopefully(purposely) run into him..

also counts to be nice to the person who hands you the application just so maybe she or he will help you out.. place your application on top of the heap or get rid of others or put a good word to the boss..

have you never taken a how to get employment course?

I don't like to brag about that. It's something that I am not proud of. It's between me and them.

Also, they were not terrorists. They were people fighting for what they believed was right while on their home land.

You're correct. The "Terrorists" are the idiots that strap bombs to their body and blow up men, women, and children, both Shi'ite and Sunni. Those types are not only very stupid and irrational scum, they piss me off to no end.

You don't need to defend the enemy, man. I was in the First Gulf War, and they were defending their land. They were a recognized, official army with uniforms. The people our boys are fighting now are not "soldiers", and many of them aren't even defending their own country. They're insurgents; foreigners who go to and fight in Iraq. They're joe blows who decide to pick up a gun and take a crack at Americans.

Honestly? No. Not one bit.

I was a puppet for Ol' G.W., IMO. A hired thug.

I doubt that you could identify.

Quiero Mota, IMO, is the only person here who could relate to my position/situation. He seems very intelligent to me.

what about people that operate the electric chair, or lethal injections? They are just doing their job, but ultimately they are taking a life of someone who may or may not be evil

Pandemoniac
They are just hands guided by another mind, cannot grasp why anyone would do that job, but eventually they probably have enough faith in those who pass the judgement to pull the switch
