okay but this isn't one of your checkout line fantasies where you save the day, this is real life. you need a BIT more than that, such as actually being threatened with a weapon. catching a kid carrying nunchucks and a switchblade in your backyard is not an automatic license to kill. jesus fucking christ you just can't wait, can you. there are places you could enlist.

and hey, if you don't think it's fair that you have to sort out what is reasonable before LITERALLY FUCKING KILLING SOMEONE, then you won't mind taking the hit and going to prison for keeping your family safe.

You are too sheltered/naive to understand how real life situations unfold, clearly.
