@notaleman Must? I mean you can do what you want.

But me, personally, if someone--anyone--is pointing a gun at me, I'm going to try and react in the way that would least likely end in my getting shot.

@freemo

@volkris

I think he means, what is an appropriate way to respond both for society and from how the law should view it.

Its a fair question.

@notaleman

@freemo then I'd ask him to rephrase the question because it seems odd to ask about society being held at gunpoint.

I'm thinking about literal guns, but perhaps he means something figurative if he's talking about society.

@notaleman

@volkris

Society isnt being held at gunpoint. The rules and ethics around an individual being held at gunpoint that society should agree on is the question.

Follow

@freemo right so that's why I wonder what @notaleman is actually asking.

I will leave it up to them to clarify the question.
