There are many ideologies I am willing to die for. There are very few ideologies that I am willing to kill or harm someone else for.
A not very surprising circumstance where I would be willing to intentionally hurt someone is if they broke into my home while I was there. That would just be really inconsiderate. Still I would only kill them to neutralize the threat they pose and would absolutely exhaust any other options prior to doing so.
I feel death would be too good for someone who breaks into peoples’ occupied houses. A true punishment would be seriously injuring them and condemning them to a long life of disability and interaction with the “legal” system.
Unfortunately, in either scenario, I too would be stuck having to interact with the legal system, which is pretty much the worst thing imaginable to me.
Yeah, let’s make a system where a bunch of thugs can make money off problems that they themselves can create without consequence.
Seems real smart.
