In a civilized society, you can change the law in an organized manner, but you cannot act outside of it as you see fit...your model is called anarchy.

A society in which it is legal to murder defenseless children is, by definition, not a civilized society.

My model is hardly anarchic - rather the current system exhibits moral anarchy.

My model is simple and ordered: it should be illegal to take human life unless one is acting to defend another human life which is being unjustly threatened.

This model is logically consistent and it is morally consistent.
