You can't have a mandict as vague as 'You can't allow someone to be killed'. You would have to specify the conditions under which it applies, and if it as unilateral as the initial statement suggets, then as the law MUST be followed your capacity to make your own moral judgement is diminished.

As I was not old enough to vote at the last general election, I have not voted for the ruling party.
However, if I did vote here, it would be for the Lib Dems as the best of a bad lot. I doubt they're going to get into government.

I do not want them to represent me and I did not vote for them. If someone kills a million people and says it's in my name is that then my fault?

On what do you base the assumption that the resident is not a criminal? Indeed, he may be the greater offender of the two- perhaps this whole scene unfolded five minutes after the resident had returned from personally overseeing and participating in a genocide.
Furthermore, even if the burglar is the greater criminal, this does not immediately qualify him as less valuable to society, as you well know- he may reform and become someone who brings joy to billions by claiming AIDS, for instance, while the resident degenerates into a genocidal maniac (which, to clarify, we are now assuming that he has not yet become).
The life of the resident is not necessarily more valuable than that of the burglar. We must therefore avoid drawing conclusions from the potentially misleading context of the situation in question. When treating the lives as equally valuable for lack of better information (an argument you used earlier in seemingly defending empiricism), my previous argument again stands.

That's why we have law courts. We assume initially that the robber is a criminal, and that the other man is not. If this is wrong we proceed accordingly. I'm not saying the lives are equally valuable in all aspects, I'm just saying we have to do this as any other course of action is less likely to lead to a more satisfactory solution. The life of the resident is probably more valuable than that of the burglar. We cannot draw any conclusions per se, rather we draw a general approach which we accept is amendable and change it when contrary information exists, contrary to what we based our original approach on that is.

The entire criminal justice system presumes the opposite.
'We should stop murder being illegal because what if a man comes back from the future to stop someone who single handedly wipes out most of humanity, then if we prosecuted that would be a bad thing'

Too vague. For instance, you haven't specified character traits- this person might be a renowned liar.
But overlooking this and assuming that the person in question was the sincerest person in the history of mankind, I am still unable to make a judgement.
I may be privy to infromation which shows that by killing a million people, one billion will be saved.
I am therefore always reluctant to commit to oversimplistic moral absolutes such as 'killing is wrong'. Except for one moral absolute which I will accept- 'Kant was wrong'.

That's my position. Act to the best of your ability and understanding but in the knowledge that you can, in some cases, be wrong.

It's a 100% Jonny original. OH NOES YOU CAN'T BE ORIGINAL COS YOU JUST STOLE YOUR IDEAS FROM OTHER PEOPLE LOLS.
I always wondered who the first people stole their ideas from? A scalp-scratching conundrum to be sure to be sure.

They were only percieved ideas. The first person who ever stole was someone who had lost his banana and came to the conclusion his friend stole it. Thus theft was born.

I don't quite understand the sentence, but ownership is fairly natural. Try stealing an eagle's egg. If you mean when was the concept of ownership reified, then I guess it came soon after the banana was stolen, and the victim invented a grunt meaning "**** you jonny", and the thief understood.

The act of picking made it theirs? Jesus, why didn't we all just run around grabbing possessions as fast as we can that nobody else is using. Oh wait we did that, named it colonialism as I recall!

That eagle exploited the other birds though. Surely they're entitled to a share of the egg?

Anything about your person or located within your cave is your personal property, perhaps (although this would mean that as soon as you stole something it would be yours and no-one else would have any right to it).
There was no state or official property ownership, obviously.
The colonialism analogy isn't great, because there was no reason to take more bananas than would feed you/your family back then, whereas it was later advantageous to increase the power of your empire.

It's a joke. I was just pointing out how patently false property laws if you try to justify them through origins.
At least they're not anarcho syndicalists queball. As for me I'm off for a few weeks again. Don't do anything I wouldn't do! Actually on second thoughts don't do anything I would do, that's probably safer.

It is quite funny watching threads wander a bit...but anyway, if someone is about to shoot you with a shotgun, and you shoot them with a pistol to PROTECT yourself then that in really self defence, since you used necessary force. What else are you gonna do in that situation? Change into some martial arts expert, leap into the air, land behind him and knock him out....

would you really grab for the gun again( with all the things you know now) ??

You hit the nail on the head. But I don't know what I would do if it happened again. Dont want to think about it.
Well I'v ebeen in court, and consulting with lawyers all day.
And the judge decided that I was acting in self defence, and that the charges should be dropped.
I'm glad that happened, but slightly miffed about the large amount of bail I had to pay. Anyway, I'm glad this is over.

my god
how can you expect someone to actually THINK about if someone is going to shoot them if they're having a shotgun raised at them?! That's just stupid. If i were in the same position with a gun in my hand, and it was my house, i would probably have shot as well - it's just the instinct to survive. You don't think rationally when these things happen. If you do, you've got a strong possibility that you won't live through it. Ok, there's obviously the possibility that he wasn't going to shoot, but there's also the one that he WAS going to shoot, which if he has a gun is what you first consider.

I agree (just adding to my post). Remember: Generally when someone breaks into your house and starts to point his shotgun at you he is much more likely to shoot you than not. I know that in that position I wouldn't have thought twice about shooting him first, because personally I want to live to see the next day...

I would think the logic of some anti war people would mean that all house residents should be armed and shoot burglers on sight wether armed or not.
After all, "it is untolerateable if even just ONE innocent CIVILIAN dies. if any do, it is entirely unjustifiable [to not have all burglers shot on sight]"
He did the right thing.
From the viewpoint of a person of moral integrity, the life of an innocent victim IS WORTH MORE then the life of a burglar. A lot more, more then 50 burgulars, and out of that many one would murdered him in cold blood, and on that chance the criminal's life is forfit. Harsh? NO, it's simple. Dont want killed? DONT BREAK INTO HOUSES!

his point is that no innocent civilians should ever die. and hence all burglars should be shot in case a burglar kills someone.
a far better argument would have been the fact that Saddam kills innocent civilians all the time, and at least we can stop that from happening.

If the facts are as you stated them and no evidence to the contrary surfaces at the hearing, then your lawyer is right--it will never go to trial because no jury would ever convict you.

Its not suppose to work that way. They are charging him with manslaughter which means they want to pursue a conviction. If it was merely to keep all options open they would of just kept him under survellience or house arrest until all evidence has been collected. This is just one of the many things calling for a revolution in the US.

Both of you seem to miss the concept that the burglar did not raise his shotgun until Qazok came at him with a gun.
I'm not at all questioning why Qazok shot the guy once the confrontation was there, I am questioning why Qazok immediately grabbed a gun and forced a confrontation.

Similar gun laws in other countries, fewer gun deaths.
It's not the presence of guns on its own.
