Would you kill the person who is about to kill?

Can you not provide me with a synopsis rather than links?

You don't know the killer or the other person (both adults, let's leave kids out of this, both same race and sex). There are only moments to stop the killer and your only option is to kill. Not wound, not talk, not call police. How is my only option to kill? It is easy enough to put someone down, now if they refuse to stay down, that is a different story and could lead to killing.
You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.

Regardless of my assessment of the situation, I highly doubt I could physically make myself kill.

Not wound, not talk, not call police. And there is the issue of which one needs killing, as you stated that we do not know either one, which means that we do not know the situation.
