No. You might be able to get away with it legally though.

Please tell me you follow a personal code of ethics.
>>
>>2702731
In the animal kingdom, territory is serious business. Any transgressions result in a fight because the assumption is that they will take resources within and have proven themselves to be a threat. Unlike dogs that mark territory with piss, humans use land titles and defined boundary markers. By going through those boundaries, the person is a threat. But they still deserve a warning shot just in case they were a dumbass.

Tl;dr. Yes, its ethical
>>
It depends. Usually a case that can be defined as "defending your property with force" actually involves someone breaking into your house when you're at home.

Which means that you're defending yourself anyway.

its just always shocked me that Americans can just murder people. Like, someone goes into your house and steals something, and you people don't seem to mind MURDERING ANOTHER PERSON just to protect your object. Its just incredibly shocking, I think about this constantly, your obsession with guns, all that gun violence, the casual attitude towards murdering people. countries that have common sense gun laws don't have these issues, why won't americans just get the connection. imagine that. just murdering something. because they stepped within your property. this is something americans can do and just treat it like its righteous. wow.

If someone breaks into your house, there's no way of knowing what their intentions are, and home invasions have a very high incidence of violence perpetrated by the criminal. If they're willing to commit a crime and break into your house, then they may very well be willing to commit further crimes and harm you or your family, making it fully justified to defend yourself preemptively.

Nah not a tv but an antique passed down from three generations, some old family stuff, some shit i've kept since my mother passed away, some gifts from my parents half-way across the country, yeah i'd shoot jamal or tyrone in the ass for that stuff. why should i just let things i hold dear be taken? to appease some random politician in the capitol? to fit in with your "logic"? thieves in the US at this point in time aren't thieving out of desperation, not where i live and in very few places. the local church has canned goods available for free with no questions asked, there's food banks, and homeless shelters less than 20 minutes away, there's no excuse for stealing other than wanting a quick buck or a pretty picture frame.

although the way this discussion has turned is pretty retarded, clearly by europeans who neither understand the laws here nor the circumstances. if you point a gun at some shitty thief going after a tv, they'll drop and run 90% of the time and there's no reason to shoot, but some might pull a gun or knife in which case i see no reason why you cant shoot him/her. it's clear from your first post you're a retard since you can only shoot someone in self-defense

Rich guy (as in money) walks up to Jesus, ask him what can he do to be a better person.

Jesus tells him to help out the poor, sell shit he doesn't need and donate to charity.
Guy walks away all sad, then jesus turns to his desciples and says pic related.

I sorta agree with you

There was something on /pol/ a while back where some guy shot an intruder in his house. Turns out the intruder was drunk, and mistook his neighbours house for his own. The drunk guy broke into the house, was having a shower, and the home owner even had a conversation with him. The home owner (being a sociopathic fuck) went and got a gun and shot the drunk guy and tried to claim he had a right to because he was on his property.

The entire thread was Americans defending the home owner with > muh rights, when everyone else was trying to get the point across that shooting an intruder is an incredibly over the top way of dealing with it.

>If your stock broker makes bad investments on your behalf, you can shoot him?

In that context, no, as you can presumably sue him for fraud or whatever but in the case of someone breaking into your home and stealing your tv; yes, you should be allowed to shoot them (assuming they don't immediately surrender).
>>
>>2705222
You've given your stock broker permission to manage your property.
>>
>>2705240
Incompetence is not necessarily fraudulent. And you can presumably sue your thief for the value of your property. You haven't articulated any difference solely on the basis of property being equivalent to a portion of your life.
>>
>>2705253
So?>>2705211 very clearly made an equivalent between your property and your life. Permission or no, if we accept that premise, a crappy broker is costing you your property and therefore your life. If threat to property justifies a deadly force, I should be able to kill him. Or you're stuck with the notion that something other than defense of property justifies deadly force.

If you hire a stockbroker you typically come to an agreement that there is a possibility that your money will be lost, and this is simply a risk that comes with investment. All business opportunities and investments come with risk. No stockbroker would ever take you on as a client if you refused to accept this.
You have no existing agreements with a random thief. The thief simply wishes to deprive you of your hard earned wealth either through force or without your knowledge.

>>2705344
Yes I can. Both are equally threatening to your property interests.
>>2705359
Again, so what? The anon I originally responded to was quite clear. Since labor, and this life, was expended to acquire property, that property is equivalent to a portion of your life, and this lethal force is justifiable to defend that property. Why does the method or intention of the deprived of your property matter if you accept that premise?

You're presenting a false dichotomy. Nobody is buying this bizarre equivalency you're trying to set up. It's true that you can lose property either way, but the situations are totally different. You're pretending that agreements between business partners are meaningless when that clearly isn't the case.

No, what I'm saying is that the difference between the two is explicitly NOT in the level of threat to property interests, and that therefore to claim that lethal force is justifiable in cases to protect property interests is not in fact justifiable and is not a position people honestly hold; they're instead employing lethal force for other reasons, like protection of the self, or punishing antisocial elements of society.

>>2705521
Very interesting strawman you have there. However, my cases both present actual threats to property interests, one consented to, one not. A surgeon performing surgery is presumably not threatening your life, and one who does is subject to things like medical battery laws. Furthermore, you cannot legally, at least in the U.S. Consent to things like being murdered.

>Now comes a study in the current issue of the Journal of Patient Safety that says the numbers may be much higher — between 210,000 and 440,000 patients each year who go to the hospital for care suffer some type of preventable harm that contributes to their death.

Whenever you go to a surgeon you are accepting that death or other serious complications are a possibility.

>you can't consent to being murdered
But you can consent to having a surgery preformed that may result in your death. Try reading some of the forms people need to sign before undergoing a heart transplant.

When those surgeons make those mistakes, they do in fact endanger a life interest, maybe even just as much as some psycho on a stabbing spree. Nevertheless, there's a reason one is a murderer and the other is some sort of medical malpractice/ negligent homicide at most case. THERE IS MORE GOING ON THAN JUST THE INTEREST THE VICTIM SYANDS TO LOSE OUT ON YOU STUPID FUCKER. That is why we have these distinctions enshrined in law in the first place. But, IF (and I am not, nor am I suggesting you are.) you hold like this anon>>2705211 that mere threat to property, WITH NO OTHER CONSIDERATIONS, justifies lethal force, then it should equally apply to things like contract malfeasance, since those too, threaten property. Rather, it is those other factors, and not the property interest threat, that justify lethal force.
>>
It's not even illegal in Germany, so yes, I would consider it ethical. I may not be the court, who decides whats just or unjust, but protecting my property with all at hand is a right of mine, and if someone decides to get shot for a TV, that's his problem, not mine.

> You haven't articulated any difference solely on the basis of property being equivalent to a portion of your life.

A stock broker committing fraud can be sued to recover the loss (or maybe not, depending on what he’s got left?) but the odds of the cops catching that burglar who stole your tv (let alone recovering your tv) are slim to none and even if the cops do catch him, odds are he’s got nothing you can sue for to recover your lost "life energy".

But the issue here is that the stock broker’s crime cannot be corrected or prevented by the property owner _at the time the crime occurred_ one can only sue afterward.

On the other hand, that burglar standing in your living room with your tv in his hands, can be (and should be) stopped right then and there and the property owner shouldn’t face prosecution afterward.

In both cases your “life energy” is being stolen but in only the latter case, can you stop the theft.

No, you're not a trained police officer and it isn't your job to arrest criminals.

American Ideas on the matter are left overs from old English Common law. However the UK did not really change its legal outlook on the matter till the 1920s, even that was slow going. for a period of time they had more accepting gun laws then the US after the National Firearms Act of 1934. Most the big changes happened in the 1950s for them.

For a period of time it looked like the US would follow the direction of the UK on gun law and self defense. Especially after the shooting of JFK. Then the crack epidemic of the 1980s happened. That one event changed national opinions on the matter. There is some evidence from the period that supports the idea that gun rights make people safe in the from of the state that moved to shall-issue CHS did see large drops of violent crime for those states. However that was not the only thing done in those states at the time. Shall-issue laws being passed by a state government was part of a movent to be tough on crime in those states, giving more power & funds to law enforcement etc.

I'd personally say it's depending on context. If it's some kid who steals an apple from your fruit stand in the middle of a bazaar I don't think it'd be right to shoot him. If someone invades your home with intent to damage or steal your property I feel they've taken the risk knowing they could get shot and you have every ethical right to shoot them.

A dundu breaks into your garage and while trying to walk off with your air compressor, you catch him in the act.

If he drops the air compressor (or even if he doesn’t) and runs off, he is no longer legally considered a “threat” and if you shoot him in the back as he’s running away, you’ll more than likely get arrested.

But the reality is that he _still_ is a threat even when running away, as now he knows your schedule, how big/strong you are, what other valuable stuff you’ve got in the garage, etc. and the courts should bend over backward to protect the law abiding property owner from prosecution for defending their property and the “life energy” expended in acquiring it.

Most Americans live Benedictine existence in a suburban hellscape where - in their entire lives - they do not come into immediate contact with more than ~50 people. Their families and property become sacrosanct; these things are literally their only tethers to a grip on reality.

When you combine this with America's unique gun culture, you produce people who spend their entire lives fantasizing about the day when some fantastic wide-nosed jigaboo will come crashing through their front door looking for da white wimmin. The only thing is, this shit almost never happens. When it does, it gets blown up on Fox News, and you have some American Gothic submental mongoloid sitting in front of his modular ranch home in Oklahoma muttering "at least I protected m'own life, hyuck".

What's with all the europeans in this thread? If people are armed and legally able to defend their life and property, what does that tell potential robbers? It sends them a warning to maybe think twice about robbing houses. Most burglaries are done when the homeowner isn't home, so the fact that a burglar would choose to break in during the times when they are home shows a lack of self-preservation, and a willing to engage in a confrontation. You shouldn't have to take chances with your life or propety. Now I think this is different in cases like the Montana man who purposefully baited an exchange student who didn't know better. But during a confusing home invasion, with someone who's clearly agressive, you should have every right to defend yourself.
