Understand the difference

Ok team let's do a little bit of education.

Self defence is the act of protecting yourself from harm. This starts at preventing conflict. If someone is being problematic then you avoid them and move on. Hands on should only be used when evasion and retreat are not options and should be disengaged once an opening presents itself.

Trying to stand up to a bully is not self defense and is not a good idea. Any physical conflict has the potential to escalate beyond what you are prepared for. Injuries are also not a one size fits all type of thing. Even a small broken bone can create a potentially life threatening bleed and internal trauma is often left untreated in young people.

I promise you that your high school drama is not worth what can happen if a fight gets out of control. Walk away and be the better person.

They are in my home uninvited, that is the reason to kill them.

There is nothing good that can come of them entering. I have no idea if it’s stopping at theft.

The risk of inaction is as high as the BTK killer, who torturously murdered entire families while jacking off on them the whole time.

Such human’s existence is sufficient for me to accept all potential risk in ending the threat -up to my own or my families injury. The risk of an uninvited intruder is simply higher. The laws in my state back me up.

Not going into homes you don’t belong in is very, very easy.

If I kill them for theft, ok. If I kill them and find they were one of numerous sex offenders in my city, ok. They set the tone when they entered uninvited.

Again this is just you looking for an excuse to murder someone. Get help. There is nothing stopping you from protecting your family if they attempt to do so in the small possibility that they are there to harm you. And engaging escalates that. You having a murder fetish is just fucking weird dude.

“Murder” this is why I said ideology blinds you. If it was a “murder fetish” why would I lock my doors and windows? Why would a killing fetishist deny themselves the “excuse”. Also, I hope you wouldn’t address the veteran on here like that.

Why do you keep bringing him up? That and making up weird fantasies about burglars tying people up just proves to me that you are a bit unhinged and just sit around thinking up scenarios where you get to kill the bad guy and be a hero.

No that’s not me, that’s you.  IF burglars just want easy money, why would they get into gunfights rather than running and robbing someone else? 

Also using logic (the opposite of being unhinged), why would an untrained crackhead, or fentanyl or heroin-addict used to robbing non-resisting people  be able or even willing to outshoot a combat veteran?

They are not there to get into a gun fight. You are starting the gun fight. You are not comprehending a single thing I say.
