Hrmm...it doesn't bother me. Though, I don't think I would do it myself.

Patriotism can be dangerous. Blindly going into battle because the "authorities" of your countries tell you to is, um, not freedom. I have never understood how jumping into an unjustified or unnescessary conflict is defending freedom.

[Rána Eressëa]

I wouldn't go because I am not mentally nor physically stable and/or fit for battle. So . . . yeah.

Plus, I'm a lover . . . not a fighter.

[Wayfarer]

Erm... yeah, right. I believe you.

[HOBBIT]

I wouldn't fight in a war. Once I'm old enough to get drafted and if it looked as if they were going to start drafting people - I would probably just join some army band so I wouldn't have to fight.

when would i kill someone? Obvious answer - self defense...my life or my assailents? tough decision, no? to protect family members (them or the person you have to kill), close friends.. dunno, luckily I probably will never be in one of those situations.

*gives Wayfarer a bear-hug*

Now you have no choice but to.

[Wayfarer]

I'm not a terribly huggable person. Not that I mind, mind you. It's just that digital hugs aren't terribly convincing.

[Rána Eressëa]

*pulls out a digital paintball gun*

And what about this?

[Wayfarer]

Nope.

[Wayfarer]

All though i'd be happy to brutalize you in the online deathmatch of your choice. Assuming there's one we both play.

[Rána Eressëa]

PSO is probably the only online game I play. And you can't fight other people, only monsters.

[Wayfarer]

You play Phantasy Star Online? Schweet! I ought to get it. I love the phantasy star games.

Ever played PS4? That is a great game.

[Rána Eressëa]

No. Phantasy Star Online is a lot of fun for me, though, but I'm having trouble in the Mines. My battle skills aren't very good there. If in those situations in real life, I wouldn't survive a second. Mostly because PSO has monomate, monofluid, dimate, difluid, etc. to sustain your health and "magic". Realistic battle: a sword through the stomach and you're dead for good.

[Wayfarer]

You ought to grab an emulator and try out the old PS games. They're classics, a lot like the original final fantasy games are.

Nares. Nares and Gisak. And Megid. and Crosscut. And Positron Bolt. Fear the Posiolt.

And you are like a little bit of manure too than! If we're going for freedom, who are you to tell us how to live our lives? Patriotism is not always a safe display. It could be like walking blindfolded of a cliff because someone you've never met says you should. Some of us out there believe that war is not the answer, at any cost. By joining the battle, I would be fueling the fight. And that is something I won't do.

Yeah yeah yeah. I bet you through blood on old womens furs too.

War isn't the answer for everything, but war is the answer for some.

I was surprised to see my name pop up here out of the blue, it took me a few seconds to figure out why. Well I guess we'd have place to put you and if not we can always put you in the cat's basket, Gandgirl. But are you certain you want to come here? After all Belgium houses a great deal of the European government and such, a nice target if things get really ugly in the world. And do they actually draft in Middle-earth?

I would only kill out of self defense of my family and myself. But I doubt that I am really capable of coldblood killing. I would probably more likely try to disable them. I'd probably get sick when I actually do kill someone.

I won't kill anyone who kills my cats, I can make them more miserable when they are still alive.

As for war: I don't deem myself fit to actually fight in a war: cowardly, little strength, low endurance, unsure, not prone to accept authority out of the blue, I'd make a terrible soldier. But if my country was under attack and the enemy was at the gate so to speak, I don't think I would stand and watch but I would more likely be involved in foodsupply, medical care or administration and sorts. I would definately not go and fight on foreign ground.

[Andúril]

Patriotism?

Hah!

[Amandil]

I kill everytime I eat something. And I'll die no matter what I eat.

[Erawyn]

This is why I don't like feminists. They give men the wrong impression

Oy. So you don't like woman who are for equal rights for themselves? That's all that feminists really are. Of course they have been stereotyped as hairy braless lesbians...

Not much would make me kill, except if my life was threatened, or trying to kill someone else who couldn't defend themselves, I would at least attempt to help that person, although hopefully I wouldn't have to kill.

I would NEVER go away to war, I might have gone to fight the nazis in WWII, but wars aren't really like that anymore. However, if something happened in Canada, if someone invaded, or if there was some government thing like the Nazis happenend (not that it ever would here) I would definitely fight in any way possible.
