Re: killing someone who is trying to rob you
[ QUOTE ]
Yeah. Judging people is hot. They deserve to die. Better make it happen. I wonder if some people think poker players are parasites, living at the expense and danger of other people and the world would be a better place if you dropped dead. I don't agree with those people, but they certainly exist and their view is not that different from yours. Fine with you if they kill you?

The difference is I'm not pointing a gun at them and threatening their lives directly. When someone is willing to stoop to that level just to get some cash, my judgement (and the law's judgement, at least in America) is that it is perfectly fine to kill them in self-defense.
I don't think your analogy is very appropriate.
