    Because it is a thought experiment about punishing people for pre-crime, not people actually planning what to do with a time machine.

      No, I’d 100% kill Hitler if I ever got a time machine. It would be my first stop on my way to see the dinosaurs.

      • The cool thing about a time machine is you’d be able to kill Hitler several times, in several ways, in several different back drops. 😃

        Kill Hitler, every single day that he was alive, starting with the last day and working your way back to his birth.

          Hey if you ever get access to a time machine and i somehow piss you off in the future, could you do me a favor and hop back to this day and warn me?

            Consider yourself warned.

          That’s a little sociopathic

            One might argue that the Holocaust was also a bit sociopathic.

              More than a bit. But I don’t fantasize about mutilating and murdering a serial killer every day. Dexter wasn’t saying that its normal

          And you just legitimized a large swath of serial killers. How can you deny someone his kill who is “saving the world”?
