Would you go back in time and assassinate baby Hitler? |

If could go back in time and assassinate Hitler but you had to do so when he was 1 year old baby could you do it?
No you can't kidnap him and take him somewhere else to have a better life. You have to shoot him in the face and get back to your time machine ASAP. |

Gah I couldn't stare at a baby and shoot it regardless of who I knew he/she would become.

You'd change your own reality, and who's to say you'd even be there to go back after you changed history?

I don't know if I could shoot him in the face. But one life to save so many others, I would probably find a way to do kill him if I KNEW what would happen.

No, I couldn't do it, even knowing what I know now. It would change events, but it doesn't mean it would be better. I can't really imagine worse,
but who really knows who the next psycho leader would be and where.

No because things happen for a reason. Who knows, something worse might come to play because I changed that part of history.

Nope. In doing that, how would that make me better than him?

I am unable to harm a baby by any means, so no. I wouldn't be able to shoot him or poison him or feed him to any animal, it just wouldn't sit right
with y conscious.

No because it would also change everyone else's future as well. Probably a lot of us wouldn't even exist if that were to happen.
Very interesting question though. |

I hate that 'things happen for a reason' bullshit.

No. Because I believe that if it wasn't Hitler, it would have been someone else. Hitler did not work alone in bringing about WWII and the Holocaust. Even
if you did go back in time to murder baby Hitler, WWI and the Treaty of Versailles would still have happened. So the political and economic climate in post-WWI
Germany would have allowed for someone else like Hitler to rise to power.

No.Just like others have said things happen for a reason. I also wouldn't be here if it wasn't for him.

No. If not Hitler, then someone else would just take his place. Or who's to say if it didn't happen then, that it couldn't happen now? Then what?
We wouldn't have the knowledge we have today, to make sure it doesn't happen again.
