Self-defense
OR
Defending others

and even then killing them should be a low priority

Self-defense, lawful execution (with plenty of condemning evidence), and war. In self-defense, it should be your top priority to abate the threat in a way that doesn't involve killing someone, but sometimes it is necessary to take a life in self-defense.

It is never OK to kill someone. Ever. It can be justified, for example in self defense, but it is never truly OK to kill someone

I think this is the best response to this question

it depends, if they are trying to kill someone or you, don't kill them, call 911, if you don't have access to a phone, try to stop them but don't harm them. if they are a killer with a murder record I guess it would be ok to at least wound them, but try and leave them for the police. but you should almost never resort to killing them unless it is absolutely necessary, like if he has gone on a cod 24 kill streak.

i think in defense, or if you have a gun pointed at you

i believe it isn't really okay to kill (except for lawful execution and as a last resort for self defense). i do sometimes think about ppl i really hate dying to calm me down when i'm mad at them despite knowing it's a bad habit. i wouldn't kill anyone myself though.

Normally no, but there are a few exceptions
- If it's all you can do to protect yourself or others
- Strictly speaking euthanasia is also a kill, however when done according to what euthanasia really is, it can actually be an act of pure goodness.
- Of course, it's also possible you kill somebody when you didn't mean to, and that there was actually nothing you could do from preventing it from happening. An accident, so to speak. Strictly speaking also a kill, and one you can't help and you can normally not even be sued for but still a kill. I really hope that will never happen to me.

Now when it comes to killing I don't want to speak of "good" or "bad". Many murder cases are by far more complex than that. Also it's scientifically proven that every human being can be driven to so much anger they will eventually kill you for that. Is for one person saying "your mother is a w**re" enough to get them to that point for the other you really have to put up a well thought out plan to get them so far beyond anger they lose control, and in the latter situation in particular you must be careful to judge. For the people in the latter group it's no longer an okay or not okay, they've just been driven to the point where they are no longer able to act on rational and ethical thinking. Makes the kill maybe still not okay, but blindly blaming the killer in that kind of situation can be an error too. Some victims really "had it coming" to say it rather bluntly. Only when you've experienced the madness I'm describing here yourself you can judge about this, and if you criticize me on that one, you clearly never experienced it, and should therefore keep your mouth shut, trust me on that one. I've seen situations like those with my own two eyes... fortunately never came so far an actual kill was performed, but I am not sure how much more would have been required for that.

In a basic rule, nothing gives somebody the right to take the life of somebody else. However in some situations, it's not the right, or something being okay that counts.

And then I didn't even mention situation in which you may stand before the choice that you have to kill somebody to save the lives of millions of others, even though that person themselves is not the immediate threat, but still you know that if you don't do it millions of others may (or will) die. The "needed sacrifice" so to speak. If you'd ever face that decision would you be able to do it?

The question "is it ok" isn't really right.

yes in revene or if they have done things to close family or self defense

Yes self defense if there hurting others or r a Nazi

hmm i guess its ok if its self defence. but even then it should be last rezort.

In self defense or helping others
Sometimes it cant be avoided when someone’s life is lost
