If a person does not defend themself against an unprovoked attacker and that attacker is able to gain from that undefend attack does not that lack of defense encourage future attacks by the agressor? It seems that there is a moral duty to resist.

There is an old story of a Amish farmer who had caught a perp that broke into his house. While holding a shotgun to the perp, the farmer said: "It is against my belief to take a life, but thee is standing where I intend to shoot".
