Yep. I gave punctual information and made our laser directed weapons to kill some terrorists in Mideast!

I have had to kill two people in combat. It is not a good thing. When people ask questions like this they usually have never had to. Turn off the video game, it's not like that.

No I have not and no situation ever presented itself to me where the need to protect either myself or my family ever (thankfully) presented itself.
by PrettyPirate on October 10th, 2007
No.
I know two people who have killed other human beings. One was an act of self defense, and the other was an accidental shooting (he accidentally shot and killed his own son).
Believe me, it is nothing to joke about or make light of.

Not that I know of.

I've come to realise that I'm a sekfish coward. I had a chance to kill a few in the past but chickened out at the last minute. I bet I'm gonna do it next time. Mark my words!!!
by Bartman on April 25th, 2008
Yeah, quite a few actually.

No. But if people keep asking questions like this one that may change in the near future.

I really wish I had. My friend did, she did it by accident.
by holeinthewoods on June 12th, 2008
Yes. Accidently. They ran the stop sign through a blind intersection and I had no chance to react.

When you say anyone - are we only talking bout humans?
by Jeffers on October 10th, 2007
No, but I recently agreed with another AB poster's suggestion that a woman push her abusive husband off the balcony... so I guess I'm just an accessory...

Nearly.
I have hit someone in his temple, he was knocked out cold and was touch and go for a while but he pulled through.
The reason was self defence while working as security on a night club door.
I have seen a few people killed though, one person was stabbed right infront of me when I was in my very early teens while I was walking our dog in the local park.
I was sitting on a friends front porch wall and someone came driving past and shot one of my friends right through the head! We later found out that was drug related and his father was sentenced to 28 years in prison for smuggling heroin worth 28 million pounds!

If I had it'd be kinda stupid for me to admit it on a public internet forum don't you think?

Believe me when I say its not fun to kill some one even if you are serving in the army.
I used to be a special force (Ranger) during Iran-Iraq war. I served on the front line and also did number of missions.
From personal experience when you are in the first line and just keep shooting in order to put down your enemies is not that hard to deal with emotionally for numerous reasons, you dont know if it was you who killed a man or you dont see the man's face or eyes so it might not be that hard to deal with emotionally. but normally when you go on some sort of a mission that requires close range killing such as the one that I was assigned to would be hard to deal with emotionally although your fighting for mother land but your still killing a soldier like yourself who is fighting for his land.
A group of us( Rangers ) were assigned to penetrate into an oil refinery in Mousel( Saddam's Iraq ) in order to plant some explosives.
The mission had to be done with extra caution and we had to avoid using any guns to prevent enemies attention. In that mission I broke 3 soldier's necks and choked 1 and killed them all. The next day I had a patch of gray hair on the back of my head. I cant still get their images out of my mind and still have nightmares from time to time. Although I was shot in the war 3 times and seriously wounded a couple times prior to that night and I had killed b4 but that experience was totally different since I could see their eyes and face impressions just like they were trying to say some thing. I lost 2 of my best friends in the army one got hit by a rocket close enough to me to have his flesh and blood all over me. but with all those accounts I never enjoyed killing any of the enemies I just had no choice and if I didnt kill them then they would.
I hope Saddam rots in hell.
I wish all we humans could just live together peacefully.
Taking a human life for no good reason is just sickkkkk sickkkkkk and sickkkkkkk. What I mean by a good reason is defending your land, yourself or family.

My nephew wanted to be a SEAL, but after being led on for a while they rejected him for having mild Cerebral Palsy. Too bad in a way, it was his dream but, I understand the stance the military took.
