What would you do if you KNEW you would get away with it?

[primalclaws1974]

If there was a 100% guarantee that you would never be punished (it doesn't matter that could never happen, let's say it could), what would you do? Would you kill someone for revenge? Would you still large sums of cash? Would you sleep with someone's spouse? Or would you still be held back by your conscience, your faith or your upbringing?

Ass fuck all those that voted for Obama.

I don't think there would be anything I would do even if I knew I would get away with it. I would always worry that eventually someone would find out - even if I knew I wouldn't. But I guess if I had to pick something, I would bring home a pet bunny. I'm not supposed to have uncaged pets in my apartment, but I really wish I could have a bunny hopping around. I have no desire to kill any one person, and although money is useful I don't really feel any desire to steal it. I doubt my conscience would stop me, but my laziness would stop me from doing it in the first place. :hilarious:

Rob a bank I reckon.

I would probably rob a bank although it would be such a nerve wrecking experience that I would probably not be able to enjoy the money I stole in the first place. I suppose even if I knew that there would be no consequences to my actions, my moral compass would totally beat me up for what I did and I would live in fear of being found out and possibly rotting in prison for the rest of my life!

So in essence I would really be better off not doing anything at all.

Very interesting question! I also would probably forget about my morals and do a whole lot of stuff, some of which I couldn't post here LOL But top of the list would definitely be grab/steal enough money to last me many lifetimes over, and just have a fantastic time spending it like it's going out of fashion, and spoiling those nearest and closest to me My conscience would force me to compensate for it by doing a lot for charity too

 

[porterjack]

it would involve Michelle Obama and Susan Sarandon

and a lot of oil

I would rob a bank so that I could live comfortably and I will never have to work a day in my life. I will also use the money to help poor people.

Seems a lot of people would do as The Mask did, and rob a bank. But alas, many seem to be afraid of the consequences. I did you say you would get away with it, remember? I guess there are no guarantees in life. The idea that you might indeed get in trouble would weigh in some people's minds regardless of how unlikely they were to get caught, so that is likely why many don't do such things to begin with.
