• I do not believe in killing... Even in war or capitol punishment. ...I would also take the life of a drug dealer who sold drugs to my grandkids... 20 posted on 02/27/2003 12:52 AM EST by babygene (Viable after 87 trimesters)

• you "perceive" a threat to your self or your family, you can use deadly force to defend yourself and your family. You don't have to be in "imminent danger of death" to do so. 58 posted on 03/03/2003 12:29 PM EST by babygene

Killing has to be done in war, but you don't believe in it? Mass murderers can't be executed, but you can kill a drug dealer for selling drugs, or kill an intruder or the unborn, if they're perceived as a threat?

Yes, self defense is the thread that runs through all of the five posts (points).

There are two positions on war, offencive and defensive and, of course, capatol punishment is a punishment not self defense. Self defense is involved in all of the rest...
