I would rather kill myself, than kill another person(*), does that make me a bad human being?

  • Intellectually! I have not actually had to kill somebody to save my own life.

P.s I'm not suicidal!

You say that now, but if forced into a situation where you'd have to choose, you'd choose yourself over a stranger.

I suspect this too. The survival instinct is strong, I just live a too privileged life to have seen its face.

I'm confused as to how one might think this makes them a bad human being

If I'm not capable to survive at any cost, I don't forfill the role of any being. Eg. I'm a omega-wolf. = not good for the human race as a whole = bad human being.

I guess I didn't read it as "not capable to survive at any cost" but more as "too nice to kill to survive." Omega-wolves have a purpose though-guard the young, make alphas and betas feel better about themselves, eat the things others don't want...... It sucks being an omega, but an omega doesn't suck?

I feel horrible now.

There are many ways to be an "omega-wolf" the meaning used here is a more specific one. Im sure the you are very talented, or rich, or tall or something else that could disqualify you as an Omega :)

I wish more of these nutcases who kill 20 people and then proceed to kill themselves thought like you. I always ask...why not just kill yourself first?

You are still not GGG if you walk into a school blowing your mind out :)

Don't feel bad. I feel the same way. If it were down to me and you, you would go.

Hrm, I'm quite Ninja like, but you are right, I would likely just stand still exposing my soft throat, for your sharp blade.

Blegh, what a mess.

And while the last drops of blood leave my body i think: "Who's gonna clean this?"

Nu uh. No. That's not how I do it.

This is really dependent upon the person:

  • Me
  • My Mom
  • My Sister

I kill myself.

  • Me
  • My Mom
  • You
  • My Sister

Debatable. You might be a really good person. But at the same time you might be a rapist who drowns puppies in front of children. Sorry, you puppy drowning rapist, I know the deal with my other 3 choices, I know nothing about you.

Nice not knowing you in that situation.

Or as the arabs say: I'll fight together with my brother against my cousin, but with my cousin against the world.
