    I'll never to kill anyone for money.

    However, I will kill if it were to save my life, or to save someone.

    I don't think any amount of money would ever be a big enough motivation for killing someone. I think revenge would be a far greater power in motivating people to kill such as if someone killed their mother for example.

    98,560 people from the UK rent themselves out for just £17,514 a year, but they are often required to kill more than one person. Or "neutralise" them as they say.

    this thread is laughable

    is £100,000 worth it if your gonna spend the rest of your life in jail and wont be able to use any of it?

    some people are stupid, i bet OP is one of them 16 17yo naive young lads who dream of being a big gangster and rolling in billions from decapitating people like some sort of el chapo

    what is this world coming to

    No money would be good enough for me to kill a person I have no connection with-too much guilt. Someone who has done me wrong? No money required, I would enjoy it :laugh:

    depends on the reason they want to shoot the person

    murderer
    traitor(both country and to friends)
    rapist (basically the big crimes)

    id probably do for about the 10000 aswell

    but i wouldnt kill anyone who had done nothing wrong

    Not money.

    But if you gave me a bag of beef jerkie, and a can pepsi. I would step on a snail.
    What if I gave you a can of Coke instead of Pepsi?

    Well I guess that my rates would vary depending on the status of the person ...here are the current prices if you would like to hire me as an assassin:


    .Rapists- Free
    .Paedophiles- Free
    .Chavs- £1
    .Young Chavs- £1.50 (They tend to run faster than older Chavs)
    . Fraudsters- £30-£150
    .Thieves- £25- 100 (Depending on what they have stolen, will charge £25 if they steal bread but I require at least £50 if he/she took your wedding ring)
    .Murderers- £1000-£100000 (Rates vary on how many people the murderer may have killed)


    P.S All my rates are non-negotiobable. If you disagree with me then I will hunt you down with my tommy gun .

    You should also be against things like welfare and the NHS then, if you respect the dignity of persons, rather than utilitarianism.

    It confuses me that people would almost never kill one person to save two, but would happily rob one person to do so.
    People don't die when you tax them.

    They do die when you kill them.

    Lol, can't believe people are issuing price lists for murdering someone.

    I couldn't kill anyone no matter how much money someone gave me.

    yeah, bet they'd love it if someone killed their beloved nan for £5000

    TSR is just full of immature, extremely naive people that lack world experience and adult thought capacity and are plagued with bigotry and foolishness

    Nope. When I am talking about Chavs I am not referring to people who may not have a lot of money but those who chose to hang around street corners and terrorise people. Poor people do not equal "chavs". True chavs are the one that know what they are doing and have ill intentions. These people are the ones who milk the benefit system, choose not too get a job and get in trouble with the law.

    I understand that some people may have a rough upbringing into life but everyone has the chance to reform. However true chavs don't.
