Please specify. This didn't make any sense. The only time this would make sense is in self-defense.

Really? And not war, capital punishment, kidnapping or treason? Why did we drop bombs on Libya? Self-defense? Or a combination of revenge and real-politics?

And that doesn't apply to the unborn. BTW, people asleep, in comas, or vegitable people can't make moral desisions either

No, but, many of their rights are passed by the law on to their relatives, just as in the case with the very young, and the very aged or otherwise rendered incompetent. Would you have it otherwise?

Governments wage war and apply capital punishment. This isn't an act of a specific person (though it can be carried out by such, but only as a tool, and not as the cause). Individuals do self-defense (perhaps you missed it, but I did mention that).

Nope, but apparently you would for the very very young (unborn). You'll allow the passing of rights to relatives for the born, but not for the unborn? Why not?
