and that killing someone would be easy.
[/quote] it is very easy in the moment . you dont think of it as killing someone . you simply see a target . sounds very cheesy but its true . generally its after , that it hits a person .
people have a false perception however that as a regular infantry man you see the people you kill . in reality you dont . you locate a firing position and return fire until you stop receiving fire . thats it . very rarely will you get a "confirmed kill "( i.e you have seen your rounds hit him and the person fall )
as a marksmen however . you do see the person . and you see your round hit or miss every time (well 9/10 times ) . personally killing someone has never bothered me , because i know every person i have ever pulled the trigger on , i did so 100% knowing he/she was a threat . the mental issues arise when your only 90% sure they were a threat .
