You'd kill thousands to save your children? I'm glad I never had any. I'd kill only to defend myself or another innocent from unwarranted attack. That's it. If civilization collapsed and it became dog eat dog out there, I'd have to find a good hiding spot fast, because I would not have the endurance to kill random strangers day after day just because they decided to try to become predatory towards myself or the people I loved. I'm very happy to say I've never killed anyone, and I'd like to leave this lifetime never having done so.
I don't know if I would die for others. I'd have to evaluate the situation. Even just one other person. Would I step in front of a bus to push a toddler out of the way? I don't know. I know I would have a hard time living with myself if I didn't.
