Didn't they have second thoughts?

(didn't read all those other posts)

I thought that the clones didn't have second thoughts. I thought order 66 was wired in their brains. They're engineered soldiers, and thought they might have feeling, friends, etc., when orders wired in their brains kick in everything disappears and the orders become main priority.

the Clone Wars tv show thing (recent) sorta implies that they might've had second thought, but as shown in ROTS, not one hesitated.

Slight off topic (non-canon etc), but you might be interested to know that in The Clone Wars, Storm Troopers seem to have a choice, as one of them defected.

Yeah, we discussed that in the CW thread.

I bet any so called rogue Clone who became someone's friend would instantly kill on orders lol, he could be working at a pizza place and someone would say "order 66 is up!" and he would try to kill the nearest Jedi with the pizza cutter.

In Battlefront 2 when you're about to do operation Knightfall in the clone trooper's diary he says that some people had second thoughts.

I guess orders overrode friendship.

they could have simply been implanted with a genetic trigger. like deep cover spies that don't know they're spies. palpatine says order 66, and they become ruthless killing machines...

Think we established that sly Boba was a clone and we didn't see him attacking Jedi 😖hifty:

Boba wasn't an engineered clone. He wasn't growth accelerated, and the training he received was what Jango passed on to him, not sitting in a regiment like a drone. He was an independent thinker.

Well the clones do have a hate against jedi.It's because Jango had that hate too.Since he was the "original" they inherited that hate although it was hidden under their loyalty to Palpatine.Sorry if this non-canon 😕
(nice one sweersa) 🤣 😄

If that was true, we wouldn't have had some clone troopers refuse to obey Order 66, as has been established in the expanded universe.

Well hate isn't necessarily forever.

It's kinda like in bioshock. The guy u play as has a special keyword which if he's told to go to a room after saying the keyword he would do it no questions asked perhaps order 66 is the same thing

In one of the follow-up books from episode three (its called rise of vader or something like that) it refers to a clone commando squad called "ion team" when they receive order 66 they believe its sepratist hoax they ignore it. After finding the order was legitimate they spare there jedi friends (I also cant remember the jedi's names) the clone battalion who are stationed on the planet attempt to kill the jedi. Ion team manages to save the jedi.To be hon est I cant remember much after that. Just search ion team on the star wars wiki and read for your self. (This is my first reply so please correct me if Im wrong with anything)

This is true, but what made Yoda suddenly leap up and behead two random troopers who he might've been "friends" with? Sure he was feeling a disturbance in the Force and all, but he just up and decapitated two hard working troopers without any proof they were about to attack him!

I think, as a more powerful Jedi, he could sense in the force their intent to kill him so he took action and killed them first.

This, but better grammar. I like his explanation, even if its old.
