Ethical Dilemma: If You Could Travel Back in Time and Kill a Child-Hitler, Would You?

If I could travel Back in Time I would probably either kidnap him or do something else that could influence the future ... the chance of messing with something as grand as Time makes me giddy with excitement. I wouldn't kill him, because killing - for any reason - is against my moral code.

No 🙁 I've screwed up BAD in my life, but I still would not go back in time to try and fix it; I could end up on a totally unexpected/horrible path, so I definitely would not go back and chance that with the entire world.

Because Hitler is the reason, dangerous dictators and totalism were shot in the head when no one was looking... without him, there wouldn't be a reason to nullify bastards before they get too powerful.
Everything balances out in the end. Sure, killing hitler may delay some things that would have happened otherwise in the world, but hey, there may be worse coming up next. It's useless, because everything tries to find an equilibrium. If not for Hitler killing off the Jews, the Middle East may have been blown up with a nuke. Cause and effect, and the mirror that comes with it.

I'd bring him back to be my evil sidekick in my plot to rid the earth of the human scurge!, lol. Seriously though I would do nothing. Butterfly effect and all that.
The pen is mightier than the sword...and considerably easier to write with.

Wouldn't do anything...
Though, if someone were to kill baby Hitler, they'd just find another baby to take his place. So, we'd still have a Hitler... he'd just be gypsy Hitler.

i won't kill him. who is to say something worse won't happen. Hitler is like a message now and we can learn from him so no one repeats his mistakes.
to put it simply who is to say the world would be a much better place if Hitler never never became a leader..

Sounds like escapism. By killing Hitler you don't remove the causes that brought Hitler to power and made him able to the things he did in the first place. You're just opening his seat for another Führer to take place.
All you did is auto-satisfaction by telling yourself "I killed a really really evil man!".

I'd try making him a Ghandi.
