Detain them.

That is not always an option. You can not always restrain someone. Sometimes you have no choice but to kill them. If they have a gun, and you have a gun, and they are yelling, screaming and threatening to kill you, then when they point that gun at you to shoot you, you are not going to have the option to take it away and tie them up. You have a split second to shoot, or be shot. And shooting them in the shoulder does not work like it does in the movies. And it is mutch harder to shoot someone in the shoulder, or leg than the chest.

Self Defense is not a crime , It isnt considered murder.The constitution of the united states and its laws anyway.Consider it preservation of Life .Your own not murder.

So far everyone who has responded agrees, it seems at least, that if you have no other choice, you can't know the gun out of their hands you can't put them in pain and escape but it is either you or them then they should die. The second part of my question still stands though as to why is you're blood sweeter than theirs.

Simply because its your blood.....your own life is always sweeter than someone elses because its your own

They started it. You didn't go out with the intention to kill (presumably ).

Yes i would, if its kill or be killed I wouldn't be the one dying.

If you're that close to each, shoot them in the leg.
Why take an easy shot and kill someone when you could detain them with a sort of hard shot.

Yeah it's legal if it's in self defense (meaning you won't get arrested, you did nothing wrong, they did).

But as for the robbing thing and they're running out the door..how about shooting them in the leg? Shooting them with an airsoft/BB gun? Paintball gun? That's gotta hurt, you can take your things back and call the police and let them handle him You didn't kill him but the police will arrest him because he robbed you

And why is the law that way? Where did this idea come from that you can kill before you get killed?

[randomrandomrandom]

Or yeah. Buy a rubber bullet gun.

because you certainly cant kill them AFTER you're dead....so you have to kill them beforehand..lol

If a person comes to kill you, you can kill him, BUT ONLY IN SELF DEFENSE.

In example: this guy comes to my house. I am stuck in a corner. He loads his gun. If I kiil him while he loads his gun, I will NOT get arrested for murder, as I killed him in SELF DEFENSE.
If this guy comes to rob me, and he is opening the door to get out of my house, and I kill him right there, I will get arrested for murder, since I did not kill him in self defense.

Doubt you'd get arrested for muder, most likely manslaughter. But that's why you turn him face the door ;D My dad always says if someone breaks in he'll unload the full magazine on them even if the first 2 shots take them down.

thats why you keep a spare gun around that you can say was his and then you can always call it self defense ;D

But if a witness saw you.....

hmm....

I would kill them. I'd rather live
