How would you kill Voldemort?

[cignus_pfaccari]

Yeah, it's not something I'm proud of but I realized a long time ago that I'd stand firmly in the Lawful Evil category by D&D standards.

Heh. Not morally bad, but bad in terms of resource allocation.

I mean, I'm advocating summary executions here. I don't have a moral leg to stand on.

I can agree that you wouldn't necessarily have to use PGM but you want to smash the Death Eaters so completely they have no hope of reconstituting in the future. So you have to kill not only them but every person who has given them support and to be safe their close relatives because that's one of the things that draws new members into such an organization. Their relative was killed and they take up violence to get back for the death perpetuating the cycle. Which you have to cut off by taking out those who would turn on you out of vengeance for their dead relative(s).

By the way as un-uniformed combatants they would be lumped in with spies and under the 1st and 2nd Geneva accords CAN legally be summarily executed. It just hasn't been done systematically or openly since WW2.

Removing his hands, eyes, and tongue are probably good ideas to make sure he's unable to act when he wakes up (as, of course, he's likely to be able to wake up at some point). The only reason not to do that (aside from squeamishness), would be that he might be of some value in interrogation ("So, these 'horcruxes', we want to know where they are.").

Based on all the books, especalist the last, you do not need a wand to work magic. IT IS A FOUCUS for you to control the magic in useful ways and doing this fast. Not useing a wand your magic is like most stories about someone making a wish, full of unintended results.

If my statment is true the removing of his hands, eyes, ext, ext, would still alow V to use magic in vary dangures and uncontroled ways.

Guess that means you keep him drugged. As I recall they can also cast spells silently right?

Hrm. Perhaps some brain surgery would be in order, then.

I think we have already advocated the 50 cal scalpel.

While that is a possible action, I'd like to be able to make sure that we don't have to kill him more often than we have to, so I'd like him to be able to answer questions, like about what and where his horcruxes are.

So, I'm thinking lobotomy.

Nuke him from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

Yes.

Failing that, arm Harry with a dull spoon.

 

[TanisFrey]

The suspected locations of any further horucruxes if isolated should be hit with tactical nukes (tac nukes not the big ones! anywhere from say 1/4kt to about 3kt) just to be sure. Same for Voldemort himself, being nuked would HAVE to delay him coming back the next time at least some.

One little problem, muggle technology fails in hightly magical areas. If you were V, huge into magic, would you not locate your horucruxes in highly magical areas that hide your horucruxes from the pesky muggles picking them up and carring them off????

Err... I'm not at all sure that's generally true, and in fact probably isn't. We know a lot of tech doesn't work at Hogwarts, but there are apparently major magical areas reachable by the London Underground, and I'm sure residents of Potterverse London would notice if their iPods stopped working when they walked by platform nine and three-quarters.
