A very simple answer, for a simple question...

The question is:

What is worth killing for?

Clarification after talking to Cash... What holds true for most, myself anyway, people in regards to what they will kill for?

Not neccessarily...I think my life would be better if my neighbors little kids would stop screaming and crying so damn loud, but I'm not gonna kill them, even though my life might be better without them.

There's only a few things I'd kill for. Obviously, to save my own life. I'd kill to save the life of someone I love. I'd kill to prevent an extreme violent act, like rape, from happening to myself or someone I love. Other than that - and this is without thinking about it too heavily - I don't think there's much else I'd kill for.

Might be worse too... Which really is the motivation for not actually doing the deed is it not?

I agree... I'm thinking there is another statement that is also true...

Separate question...

What would you die for?

Killing to save your life would be the only reason I would think of.
