    I have, but he’s known to have hanged himself with bedsheets from his bunk bed in prison,
    so it’s a well-kept secret.

    Someone said I did.

    I said to a coworker “I got in trouble a long time ago for identity theft. I was a different person back then.”

    He said: ughh… You’re killing me.

      Option one: People have already killed and served their sentence. Option two: Road accident.

    Hmm, tough one. It was a genderfluid person, so I’d have to use a ouija board to ask if they were a man at the time of me killing them.

    No?

    Probably?

    Came close a few times though, and one of those I left laying where they were and have no idea what happened to them, just that there were no news reports about a dead guy in the road

    Sometimes life throws you into situations where there’s no good choices, and you have to choose what you consider the lesser evil. Like elections and some drunk or drugged asshole coming at you with intent. My choice is always going to be to preserve myself, even at the expense of the asshole coming at me.

    Now women and children? Hundreds of those! (Hey, don’t forget what c/ this is. At least part of an answer is going to be shitty)

        I was driving the speed limit and a guy decided that wasn’t fast enough. Ripped around me honking, flipped me off and I thought that was it.

        Instead, he came back and crossed into my lane so I had to run off the road. Luckily, it was into a fairly flat section so all it did was bump the gas shutoff thing. But, the switch to cut that back in was in the rear, so I had to get out to activate it.

        While I was doing that, the guy came back again, screeched to a stop and jumped out with a knife. He came at me. Unfortunately for him, we had been training vs knives at the dojo I trained with.

        He got me on the arm a couple of times, but I disarmed him and the knife dropped. He started going after it, and despite me screaming at him to just fucking stop, he wouldn’t.

        So, I kept him from being able to reach the knife. By the time I had ahold of him, my temper had snapped and I used more than minimum necessary force to make sure he couldn’t keep coming. Part of that was slamming him in the road face first, and some kicking.

        When I left, he was breathing and in the recovery position, and that was that.

        Dude was most likely on meth. He certainly had the usual visual effects of long term meth use, and was talking nonsense. Random strings of words, not just weird shit. Only coherency was stuff like “fuck you up”.

        I’ve never had to go that hard with anyone that wasn’t drunk or drugged out. Anyone else does the usual exchange of blows, or (after I trained for a while) realized they weren’t going to get anything done, and backed off. But, that’s the only person that I know wasn’t going to be able to get up on their own. The other ones, while they got hurt, I could tell with a quick check that they would be able to walk away eventually. That guy was in bad shape.

      How do you kill someone from a mathematical point of view (as opposed to a no mathematical point of view)
