I heard that at the Russian school hostage tragedy one of the terrorists went up to a mother with two children and made her choose which one was going to live and which one was going to die. The mother picked the boy to live so the terrorist killed him. Now the daughter gets to live out her life knowing her mom picked her brother.

It's so damn disturbing. I can't even imagine how you could choose. :frown:

You choose to save at least one. What would you do? Tell the guy to [-peep-] off and let him kill them both?

In such situation, you have to put yourself in the potential victims' heads. Imagine you weren't chosen to live and the terrorist killed off the supposed survivor.

How do you go on in life thinking you were supposed to die, chosen by your own parents?
Even if it was a "random" choice, just try to feel what it would be like.

I totally see what you're saying, but just consider what it must have been like for that mother and what it will continue to be like for her.

I'm a father of one with another one due in another month or so, and I swear to God being forced to make a choice like that would break my heart. And my wife, Jesus, she feels even more deeply than I do, and I feel pretty damn deep about my son and will about whatever our next child is.

I don't fault that woman at all, God only knows what she was thinking/feeling/experiencing in that moment, but if I ever find myself in that situation, I'll bum rush the mother fscker that tries to make me make that decision. I'd rather die than make that choice.

Where did you hear this story, DH? Can you provide a link?

I have a hard time believing this is really true as it is completely utterly pointlessly cruel. However, it would not be a first that I cannot imagine something to be true, yet actually it is true.

Makes me want to open up a portal to hell and have a conversation with the person that committed this act. I could write down here all the bad things I would like to do to him (or her) but nothing even comes remotely close to what he/she deserves so thats pointless. I would really like to gain understanding in how people can be manipulated into doing these things. I cannot (yet) accept the fact that people are born bad/evil, babies are born innocently and they can be corrupted when growing up (which is contrary to some christian belief that people come to this world unpure and need to be cleansed by accepting Jesus as their saviour).

Oh man, I was just asking a rhetorical question, no actual answer needed. Was just expressing how much it has to be hard to even choose. I never intended to say you wouldn't choose or find some way to just get on with it (like killing yourself before choosing), but just rhetorically speaking.

Wasn't this the basis of the movie, Sophie's Choice, with Meryl Streep made in 1982? Same dilemma in the Nazi concentration camp - mother had to pick between her two kids ... agreed, it's gut-wrenching.

I'd go with the "charge 'em all" camp here - and see if I couldn't get at least one of the mofo's before ...

Reply to Jake_Barnes

I don't have a link, I haven't seen Sophie's choice, and I still say I'd charge the bastard. I couldn't make that choice so I'd go down fighting for both children.

I keep thinking about this. I'm not sure I want to go THAT techy and nerdy. What do you guys think of "Opteron Prime", that being his first and middle name? I know, it's only a touch nerdy and techie, but I don't want my son to have some kind of freaks name, ya know?

Yeah, yesterday the guys at work played me right. At first I was showing disbelief and awareness that they were kidding me, but they still got me. Something about racing for getting the most warranties between me and another coworker who started on the same day as I, because in 3 months from our hiring date, they will see who had the most and let him stay. Heheh, man that worries you.

Of course, getting demoted to the office supplies floor position for not selling many, that one's not a joke...LOL...
