Would I be justified in killing a man who was holding my dog at knife-point ?

Some people don't get it. And I have no intentions of trying to explain to people who don't get it.
Anyone that threatens something I love..like a dog, a bunny, a cat, a horse, a cow...something I love and loves me back and I consider my child, that someone is going to get hurt. Bad.

 

It's crazy how willing you are even to go to extremes to stick with your position; even to assert it would be murder if it was Hitler, I don't agree but I respect your drive.

 

Oh. I must've missed the hidden agenda in the question.

 

Im following the law, bro. Something that you claim to know all about.

Not only would it be illegal to kill someone for threatening your bunny, it would also be immoral.

I love my cat, but I do understand that humans are a higher being, and its not moral to kill a person for threatening to harm a parrot.

 

totally serious - do you think it's a Jewish thing to be this on line ?

 

Is the intruder in your house?

 

you claim to know about the law, and yet ask these questions??

you can only protect/defend PERSONS with deadly force.

dogs, cats, bunnies, parrots, are not persons.

so no, you cannot kill someone for threatening harm to Fluffy or Mr. Whiskers.

I don't think its even legal to shoot someone for running for the door with your tv.

its only legal to shoot/kill someone who is threatening a person.

 

Really. Bet your cat thinks otherwise.

 

He's an intruder in my home with a weapon, I'm not telling the cops he threatened my dog, I'm telling the cops that he threatened my family...prove me wrong. Case closed, dead criminal, good riddance.

 

He was threatening my family, done deal...there are no cops in the house at the time of shooting, there are no cameras, it's my word vs. a dead criminals that he was threatening my family

 

you would have to make up a story that he was threatening you or another person, and stick with it consistently with the police.

and never tell anyone EVER that you actually killed someone for threatening Fluffy.

 

He illegally entered my home with a weapon, he threatened my family, enough said...I don't have to make up a story, he threatened my family, end of story.

 

you do have to make a detailed story and stick with it, and never tell anyone else different.

do you think cops and courts and DAs take the taking of human life lightly?

 

I've never been in trouble with the law in my life, I'm a decorated veteran...It would probably never be investigated or prosecuted and I am not prone too discuss my problems outside my family.

I

 

one of your family members might not be comfortable knowing that you murdered someone for threatening Fluffy.

they may even drop dime on you to the cops.

so tell no one.

 

Human life that threatens people or their animals must be dealt with in a severe manner. Many serial killers started out by killing defenseless animals. I say, whack him out before he/she does any more damage.

 

What if someone has a knife to a police dogs throat? Does the police dog have more value then my mini dauchshund?

 

Hitler is dead ron.

 

Dear Lord Ron , give it up. A guy in my house with a knife threatening to cut my my rose bushes neck is a threat to my family. Bang, dead criminal. It is not that hard to understand , is it?

 

You have an armed intruder in your house, it doesn't matter if he's threatening your favorite pillow.

 

Not true, it depends on the state when it comes to property.

Also, anyone who pulls a knife in my general vicinity and starts trying to stab anything living is going to get dropped. I'm not taking the chance that I'm next, and if my family is nearby he'll get two in the chest and one in the head.

 

It's a jury that makes the final decision in these matters.

 

Then the cat should say something....what? It can't! Why not?

BTW, do you think of your children as animals?

 

Justified or not....he dies.

 

Yup, it's an officer of the law......protected class....
