Back to 'The Dead Zone': "would you kill Hitler?"

1. Food for thought.... that's all...

2. Such fate that he was not killed, with multiple attempts on his life.

All I can say about this one….our country, the world will be a better place when he’s finally gone

3. Knowing what I know now, I would sacrifice my life to kill Hitler.

But the laws of unintended consequences makes it unwise to consider such decisions without hindsight. Who in the time would have believed that killing Franz Ferdinand would have led to two brutal world wars the effects of which we are still feeling over 100 years later. It might have seemed like a good idea at the time.

4. Think about it. If you could go back in time,

not to kill, but to protect? Protecting Ferdinand could have possibly led to the timeline of no WW1, Hitler wouldn't have served, Germany wouldn't have been in a pit of despair, leading to the rise of Hitler and WW2. However, with the treaty system that was in place at the time, Europe was a fused stick of dynamite waiting for a lit match to come along.
