Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1516308 Well my honest opinion and it might be a bit controversial is that it is better to be killed than to kill. Killing is ALWAYS wrong. And that concludes this conversation. It is pointless to argue with the insane. It is just the ethical end of the road. Killing is wrong so if there is a choice between killing somebody or be killed the only logical and ethical choice is to let yourself be killed. Yeah it is harsh but that IS the only logical conclusion you can have if you believe killing is wrong and that is why you take measures to prevent such a situation from ever happening. Wait what??? You would let your child be killed instead of you protecting it? You would allow yourself to be killed and your child be raised without a parent?? WTF? We talked about these kind of situations in Philosophy class in high school and yeah if you look at it from a purely reasonable and logical viewpoint it IS better to let yourself be killed than to kill another person. Being murdered is better than being a murderer. A kid growing up with a murdered father is still better than a kid growing up with a father that is a murderer. In the case of the child I don't know, we didn't talk about that situation in that class. I think in that case it would be justified so it shouldn't be punished too harsh. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 23764026 Well my honest opinion and it might be a bit controversial is that it is better to be killed than to kill. Killing is ALWAYS wrong. There we go. I cannot agree with that, but I respect your ideals on this. Now, I know everyone here is pouncing on you, but here's the thing. There is no shame in being one of the weak and kind. Just don't be so naive to think there aren't others risking their lives for you, or others that would like to hurt or kill you. Those cops you want to call. They have to shoot people sometimes. They have to kill sometimes. I hope you are very thankful that they risk their lives on your behalf. Not every American is a gun touting vigilante killer, but it significantly more dangerous here, and without strong communities many are left feeling helpless against a legal system that sides with the criminal (In some States), and police that aren't a big enough deterrent. For some, having a gun is the only way they can truly protect themselves. Like this bar owner. |

I don't give a shit if its pointing at my head or the ground. If the gun is already drawn he is trying to convey the message that he is ready to use it therefore I am ready to defend myself and stop him from doing what he intends. But somebody in your home is not really a threat now is it? He is just there, for all you know he will run away the moment he sees you, why would you have to kill him over nothing? A threat in my opinion is a guy shooting at you or somebody putting a knife against your throat.
