If somebody is using violence against you, why should you have to try to run away before defending yourself?

Yeah that's what I said. You should be able to kill anyone getting violent against you.

Haha yeah I should have couched my desire to kill people over property behind something more innocuous like "i hate duty to flee laws"

Or maybe the fact when someone is robbing you it’s very likely they could kill you. You don’t have enough time in that type of situation (a violent robbery) to try to assess whether or not they’re going to kill you or not when you can defend yourself instead.

Idk why people think I'm disagreeing with anyone here. I fully agree. You should be able to kill anyone trying to take something from you.

I also agree with you. You should be able to kill people based on vibes.

Why? It's fundamentally no different from what anyone else here has said.

It very much is different. Everyone in here is saying yes, you should have the right to defend yourself in a life or death situation and not suffer negative consequences because of it. Everything you’ve said tells me you’re the type of person who looks for trouble so they can have the opportunity to seem like a hero. That’s some psycho shit my dude.

No, you should be able to defend yourself against someone using violence against you.

It isn't about property or killing them. It's about protecting yourself from serious harm or death. If a 90 lb. school kid shoves you, you don't get to kill them, because a reasonable person wouldn't consider that to be a serious/deadly attack.
