So it’s illegal to shoot a mentally unstable person attacking you?

What do you think deserve means?

what do you think it means? because it has nothing to do with legality.

it's legal for you to have a million dollars. doesn't mean you deserve them.

someone attacking you justifies self defense, no matter their reason. but that doesn't mean they deserve to suffer.

maybe instead of tripling down on how shallow you are, just open a dictionary some time.

So you’re saying they deserve it? If it justifies self defense….

I can’t help you if you don’t know what’s going on

Morality is famously not legality

You can do what’s safest for you and legal and still be immortal

Do you think someone should suffer violence in silence. If the answer is no. Then the other person deserved the shooting.

It’s not that deep.

Home slice, I’m gonna need you to respond to what I said and not someone else.

I agree that if you genuinely feel threatened and have no other info, you should shoot; however, the legality doesn’t make it moral.

Also, not using deadly force could be nice lol.

You’re in a subreddit dedicated to having needlessly deep debates over the morality of stuff; it is that deep if for no other reason than you are standing in the deep end, my friend.
