The Masked Tulip Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 ...if he was wounded and some ISIL nut-jobs were closing in and there was no chance of getting him to safety? Would it be a mercy killing - for him or for us? I was just watching a WW2 film in which Frank Sinatra killed one of his own wounded men rather than leave him behind in the jungle for the Japs. It reminded me of stories from WW2 of certain units that would not leave wounded behind. The Free Poles, for example, would not leave a wounded man behind if they could not get him to safety. That was known by every man but they would rather die at the hands of their own than face capture and torture by the Germans. Now, I know how eager everyone is to put Mr. Pin out of his misery... but I was just thinking that with this ISIL lot we are faced with the same situation that we saw in WW2 when fighting another evil enemy. Faced with the decision - would you leave a wounded person behind to be captured by the ISIL nut-jobs or would you put him or her out of their misery first?

The Masked Tulip Posted October 2, 2014 Author Share Posted October 2, 2014 Does he have to be wounded? Breathing would suffice. It probably would be preferable just to destroy ISIL. Probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Masked Tulip Posted October 3, 2014 Author Share Posted October 3, 2014 The point of this thread was not to actually shoot Mr. Pin - although so many appear eager to do so that perhaps we should just go ahead and organise it as part of the HPC meet-up - but to discuss that with this ISIL nut-job lot all of us now have to be prepared to do whatever is neccessary in order to protect ourselves and those around us if attacked. I suppose it was true with the Al Qaeda lot but it just seems more so now with this lot - especially as the worst ones appear to come from the UK.

Too many computer shoot-em-up games in their bedrooms! Yes, in the event of an ISIS attack on the Off-Topic Board I think we would have to all be prepared to shoot the wounded.

They will have never dated a woman let alone had a fiddle and post comments such as "Enough of this infidel female talk - let's talk about oiling other men's bodies with warm scented oils!"... or something like that.

longtomsilver2 Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 This is routinely discussed amongst troops on peacekeeping. The general consensus was to dispatch a comrade wounded or otherwise and by that I mean if we found ourselves ambushed and anyone got taken then all others were to train their rifles in the direction of that person and let rip.
