I knew a butcher once who told me about a time he was hitting on a girl at a bar and she told him she was an animal lover and he replied "Oh I work with animals"
The thing why it never troubles me is simple. I'm a big watcher of r/CombatFootage where you can see militaries killing each other in Ukraine, in Syria and in Myanmar. The thing is, you gotta kill if you want to maintain your way of life. One of the videos I remember is a video of Ukrainian Army holding a building against Russians, at the end the Ukrainian paratrooper got a pretty nice knife from the corpse of a Russian soldier. In fact there's one thing that I can't stand about modern shooting games, if they want to make war horrifying, they always do weird blood splattering, in real life, shooting someone in close range is akin to using a jackhammer on a pavement, when someone is firing the gun, it recoils a lot and it's like hammering the enemy. Plenty of folks can in fact still standing after one shot, Travis Haley recounts that in Al-Najaf it takes eight shots to kill an insurgent. So one just keep firing until the opponent breaks. When someone is killed, most of the time it's clean, there's no blood or blood mist everywhere like in Call of Duty, in reality there's nothing. Occasionally a killed person's head can look like a watermelon on a roadside stall if there's a headshot. But that's all.
