Question

Do you believe in killing in self-defense?

Answer 1

If its self defense yes, I wouldnt want to kill the person, but I certaintly would try and hurt them if they were trying to hurt me

Answer 2

two guys broke into my brother's home while he was sleeping on the couch.  One of them was my brother's new girlfriends ex-boyfriend.  Anyway, my brother didn't know who he was only that this big guy was coming at him after breaking in.  Anyway he shot him in the leg (which later had to be amputated) so that he would stop him.  He called the police and then tried to stop the bleeding while the other guy jumped him.  My brother plead guilty to some leaser charge because he was up for about 15 years in prison for shooting the guy if found guilty by a jury.  He got four years in a minimum security prison for defending himself.  The cop told him confidentially that he should of killed him.    

Answer 3

Absolutely.

Justifiable homicide is also acceptable.

Just make sure your self-defense story has this line in it, "I was in absolute fear of my life. I was trying to protect myself and a 3rd party."

Throwing in an "I messed my drawers" doesn't hurt either.

Answer 4

Of coarse. You have to. You have no other option.

Answer 5

Of course.  If I didn't I wouldn't be here today.

Answer 6

Uhhhh, yeah.  My only other option is dead me and alive criminal.  Now that doesn't sound too nifty now, does it?

Answer 7

If i'm left with no choice but to kill them before they kill, absolutely
