With more technological development decreases the amount of “human” put into the killing if you know what I mean. Mentally, it’d be imaginable that it would be much harder to kill a person face-to-face with a knife, as you see the person die right in your eyes. Now, you don’t even have to see the face of the victim to shoot them. I think my history teacher talked about this. Still, very sad.

  • It's true. In ancient societies where no-one cares if a poor person dies, you'de think murders would be common. Wrong. Being unnoticed, the physical confrontation, the vengeance people would seek if you even got suspected! It wasn't easy business, much less than just shooting from afar.

  • 90% of the time they kill themselves after they've done what they done. It just shows what cowards they are that they won't even face what they've done

  • Certainly true, though long-range weapons have been around for millennia. And high-capacity firearms have been a thing since the mid-1800's.

  • The difference is reliability and speed. Old weapons were unreliable, complex, or slow compared to modern ones. And only in modernity do we have capacity and portability

  • Bayonets were still a thing too.
