You break into a house, you have nefarious intentions. You made a choice to cause physical harm, you pay the price. The victim didn't choose to be broken into, with a weapon to be used against them. The victim doesn't know if that weapon is for intimidation or action.

See, this is the problem, victim is held responsible then bleeding hearts feel bad for the aggressor when he gets what's coming to them. In the moment, you don't have hours to reflect on your actions and adrenaline is one HELL of a drug but yes, keep protecting the aggressors, when they do serve a small amount of time the bleeding hearts try to get them released even when the victims fear their release

You tie a man up, and beat him to death...then, you also have "nefarious intentions". If you didn't intend to do any harm, then you wouldn't.

You stop being a victim when you choose to keep going, after the point where it stops being necessary. If that's simply because you lack any kind of self-control...then it's manslaughter. But if you knew what you were doing, and did it anyway...then it's murder.

It's not fucking hard, dude. It doesn't matter how much you think they "deserve" to die. Murder is still murder.

The guy you're replying to appears to have some PTSD from being burgled and assaulted. I don't think they're really arguing here so much as emoting.

Fair point. You're probably right.
