Should poison use be considered evil?
I've been thinking about it, considering the implications of poison use vs. use of a regular weapon.
If you kill someone with a weapon, does it matter if it's coated in poison? In this instance, assume you've a 100% certainty in killing this person. Why would it be more evil than simply shanking him (again, assuming you've a 100% certainty of killing him)?
Is poison use considered evil because of the romanticized notion that only villains use it? An example being Hamlet.
Thoughts?
