More seriously, we're civilized mammals with the ability to discern right from wrong. Killing isn't civilized, it's more in the realm of animals, and wartime. We might fight or cower, depending on the circumstance. I'd like to think I could defend my family if events went that far, and I'd like to think I could spare someone if it wasn't wholly necessary.

I don't believe anyone can answer this question honestly until they've been placed in a horrible situation. And let's hope we never find that out.

Great point!
Fight or flight is a reflex action, I don't believe it's possible anyone would have a clue what they would do.
In a survival situation it wouldn't be a conscious decision.
