I would probably do it, but I know my conscience would eat me up inside.

I said no, because when I kill someone it will be face to face and I'd do it for the pleasure not for monetary gain....well actually I just won't want a death on my hands for so little. 1 million plus maybe...but not 10k.

Sorry, the answer will probably be yes, depending on my financial needs and how much $10k means to me at the time. Luckily I have a bad memory and forget things pretty easily.

So how many times can I push the button before L realizes these deaths are unnatural and starts going after me?

Quote from Killer Katarina
Now look at this scenario: Would you shoot a stranger if someone gave you 10k?

To the people who voted yes to this poll, you would say yes to this scenario, because it is the same principle.

Though I imagine it would be much harder for me to forget killing someone with my own hands or a gun, so I'm going to have to say no to KillerKatrina's scenario.

40-50 years ago, no way
but in this day and age, even if you follow ethics and morals and don't push, some other guy won't hesitate in killing you off for that porshe (can i get a porshe for 10k? maybe a porshe rearview mirror...)
best slam the button 152 times(go gamers)and take a trip to the moon
a random person in the WORLD dies right? wink

Not to mention a large majority are born in third world countries where their life expectancy is incredibly low and most will die from starvation to begin with.

The actual problem is :
do you actually truly believes that someone would die just because you push a button?

As for me, I can't really believe that kind of thing. Pushing a button to kill someone is very different from taking a gun or a knife and kill a person, not to mention that remembering the human's population, the probability that someone that close to me die directly after I push the button is very low. The feeling that I have killed someone just not real. Even if they show some information about someone's death after I push the button, I would still think it was some kind of sick joke, take the money and leave.

So yes, I'll push the button.
