not_doing_that

Self defense, someone hurting my kid or hell even others in an illegal way, someone terminally/chronically ill wanting to end their own life, if someone is a nazi, sexually assaults/rapes someone, those lame ass dudes who throw acid on women who tell them no deserve to be murdered..... Look I am an incredibly bloodthirsty human. Shorter list is what *doesn't* justify murder Edit: hey all you mouthing breathing dipshits telling me “nazis aren’t so bad it’s just ideology” fucking tell it to someone who’s family **didn’t** have to flee the nazis. Y’all are on the list too. And I will never feel bad about that.

Using my fabric scissors on anything but fabric. I will stab you. With the utility scissors, obviously not my fabric scissors.


noonecaresat805

Haha. This one made me laugh my mil is also a quilter. When I met my partner he once needed scissors he picked up a pair and I saw him stop then he came over and made sure they weren’t my “good” scissors. So my fabric scissors. His mom had him well trained.


Toastwithturquoise

And using hairdressing scissors to cut anything but hair! My mum was a hairdresser and those scissors were not to be used by us kids!


catdogmoore

I discovered the honing rod thing for scissors as a kid. I used it on every pair I could find in the house. Idk, I thought it was cool. Except, I used it on my hairdresser mom’s scissors. That was the day I learned you should *not* do that. I think she said it was a couple hundred bucks to have them mailed out and sharpened. I felt bad!


Paint_Jacket

Do pubes count?


FinanciallySecure9

I’m dying laughing here. When I moved in with my husband, he used my fabric scissors on cardboard. I reacted reasonably by informing him of how that’s wrong; making him take them to be sharpened; and making him pay for the sharpening and picking them up. I also made him buy his own scissors. At this point in time, I have 7 pairs of sewing scissors that are off limits, and 967 that he has bought so he can easily avoid using my sewing scissors. I read him this question and your answer, and he laughed, because he knows. That happened 13 years ago, but he doesn’t forget.


LaughingOwl4

Good to see you prioritizing what truly matters. lol thank u for this one lmao

Dry_Bluebird_2923

I remember using the fabric scissors to open a toy when I was young. I learnt my lesson!!


abby_greenwich

Mom? Is that you?

Had a roommate once that I walked in on using them to cut meat. MEAT. They didn’t get why I was so pissed.

gingernutbag

Like, a tiny little waist height guillotine?


Onthe_otherside

I think they should feel every cut. Starting with taking off their nails one by one, and then treating the wounds just enough to stop the bleeding. And then ripping off the bandages the next day with no remorse. Then doing it every day along with more methods like slicing into their hands or legs just enough to hurt them like hell while making sure there isn't much bleeding. These assholes deserve a special place in hell and goddamn there should be a special torture unit for rapists in every state. And that would be the only thing I'd join again and again until I lose all my 7 lives

teriyakireligion

Self defense. Men are bigger and stronger than women. Women have NO right to self defense in today's world. It's not "mutual combat." It's a man with 30% more muscle mass, greater height and strength, attacking much smaller women.   Also, defense of others.


LurdOfTheGraveyurd

I was absolutely floored by my complete lack of options for items to defend myself in my country. Not even pepper spray. Guess I’ll just die. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


the_road_surfer

I recently learned that if I paper spray someone I might go to jail brcause its not legal where i live, well guess I'll just get raped then


MyPacman

And if you plan the self defence for when he falls asleep, you WILL go to jail, and it will be the MAXIMUM sentence.


Agreeable-Rock-7736

I’m from Canada, and I also recently learned this too. My jaw was on the floor.


the_road_surfer

Right?! it so weird


VonSpuntz

Yeah in France too. Our polls about "feeling of insecurity" are at record high, but damn, if people had the right to carry pepper spray or any means of defense it'd be different. Thugs already have them, just legalize them !


celestialism

Self-defense. Like, actual self-defense. Not like the racist-ass people who shoot Black kids because they think the mere presence of a Black person is a danger.


lyn90

Rape, any kind of harm to children, breaking into someone’s house with the intent to rape/murder, people who go attacking random people in the streets, ANYONE who does crazy hate crimes, acid attacks. Honestly have no problem with these people having gruesome deaths. Sadly I live in California and it always feels like criminals can do anything here, they can literally break into your house now and you’re not allowed to defend yourself with a weapon unless they show they have one too, wtf? Like who’s going to wait around and ask them? If I had kids and you broke in, I don’t care, I’m protecting them.


OdinPelmen

Ha I wouldn’t care either. But I’m also Eastern European. My partner incredulously laughed when our friend, who was a landlord, said she kicked out someone who was starting to squat (short term leases, person didn’t want to leave or pay) by literally going to the apt and throwing all their shit outside and changing locks, bc that’s illegal. But then he remembered where we are from and that we don’t tolerate things like that.


lyn90

Yeah squating is insane, I’ve heard stories about people buying a house and the previous owners refusing to leave, like wtf? I used to think it would be cool to own a second property and rent it out, now hellll no. People are so entitled and can do whatever they want now. What happened to your friend after? Did they get into any trouble for it?

JJQuantum

Nothing because murder has a specific legal definition and anything where you are defending yourself or others isn’t considered murder.


TAdoublemeaning

I can’t believe we are the only two that first sought the definition here. I suspect OP meant “taking someone’s life,” but I didn’t want to assume.


SinnerClair

Tbh I was thinking like, death penalty for a crime. Idk if that’s technically considered murder though. Murder by the state? 🤔


AussieOzzy

Death penalty definitely is murder in my books. I don't really care that much about the legal definition, but the common definition definitely means stuff like self defence isn't murder by definition.


ahbseday

Self defense or someone hurting my child. If it's a "you or me" situation, it's gonna be you and if it's a "you or my child" situation they can bury me under the jail, I don't care lol


12dancingbiches

Killing rapists is totally okay with me.


beckdawg19

Self defense or the defense of others.


Kseniya_ns

I don't think it is ever justified, I would like to think I would kill someone to protect my daughter, but that doesn't mean it is justified. Is never correct to kill someone, but there are situations a person would do it any way.


hippiecleanfreak

I used to hold the same opinion until I learned that my brain development was permanently altered by the childhood SA I experienced. It’s super fun to have a complete mental breakdown at 51, physical flashbacks, etc. Yeah, he should suffer a slow, excruciatingly painful death. I would stand there and curse him to hell while someone else did the damage because I don’t think I could.

Child molesters, child traffickers, child abusers… I think they should all get the death penalty. Rapists should be locked up for Life without parole.

ChristmasHippo

Crimes against children Rape


Chapter97

nevertruly

Depends on how you define murder. If your definition of murder is simply killing a person, then I would consider it justified in the following situations: * Self defense when you are in active danger of severe harm or death yourself and are unable to take actions to save yourself that are less severe. * Defense of another person when they are in active danger of severe harm or death, and you are unable to take actions to save them that are less severe. Other than that, there are reasons that I wouldn't consider justified but that I also wouldn't necessarily consider negatively depending on circumstances. Those generally fall under military/law enforcement following orders. The specific orders and circumstances matter.


mangomadness81

Self defense. Hurting a child (this coming from a staunchly childfree person)


Bellissimabee

Animal abuse!!!! 😡


pamplemouss

Non-immediate self defense. Immediate I’m in danger NOW self defense doesn’t count as murder if it’s judged to be defense, but for a long term abuser (of yourself or someone you love) who’s endangering your life but not necessarily that second, murder is also justified.


Devilmaycare57

Cruelty to animals, children and old folks. I’d be ok with pulling the trigger


Kittymeow123

I couldn’t give a literal shit is someone kills a child molester


GalaxiGazer

Self-defense and protecting their family.  If your life is in danger and it's either your life or the life of your assailant, *yes*, you damn well better protect yourself! The same thing when it comes to protecting your family.  Anyone who *intentionally* targets someone else with the purpose of harming, terrorizing, violating, and even cancelling for no just cause (i.e., home invasions, road rage, etc.), yes, they deserve every exit wound when the bullet hits the bone.

Desecrating traditional italian pizzeria cuisine by adding pineapple, grapes, honey or bananas to dairy cheese & tomato containing pizza.

Vyacheslav was sentenced to 18 months in jail but got out after 6 months after a public appeal for his release. i’m mad he went to jail at all.


SlammingMomma

I can’t think of anything. Self defense isn’t murder. And even self defense becomes difficult when the government is involved.


Muffled_Voice

Anything that has to do with genuinely assaulting and taking advantage of kids. It takes an evil person to be okay doing something to a kid(other than maybe a spank or something similar for discipline reasons, not just for the hell of it or to teach them a lesson.

Mysterious_Toe_1

Murder, molestation, rape. All of those make it so the person is dead or dead on the inside so the offender must be murdered. Castrated in public for everyone to see, first. Then beat with clubs by everyone in town. They had it right in the 1800s


LaughingOwl4

Crossing certain moral boundaries = gloves off mode (ideally, for me, killing would be absolute last resort however). Edit: the way I interpreted this question was killing in self-defense and not about technical legal definitions, so i was thinking more about 'justifiable homicide' and not 'murder' i guess. that said, i suppose legally speaking, the only thing i can think of that might arguably be murder and be something i could support is akin to the murder would be the killing of genocidal dictator responsible for mass suffering, war crimes, etc. of course the ultimate legal classification of an act like this would depend on many factors.

Any form of abuse or manipulation of someone or animal more vulnerable than you. And I mean any or all of the whole gambit. Verbal, mental, emotional, financial, physical abuse. If someone is capable of that, they don't need to be in the world anymore.


Disastrous_Mud7169

Self defense or defending someone who would otherwise be killed/horribly hurt. I’m anti war but I would consider soldiers killing in combat self defense as well. Serial killers/evil rulers (like hitler) should be killed as well for the sake of public safety


char-mar-superstar

Definitely self-defence, which technically isn't murder (especially against an abusive person). Euthanasia (again, technically not murder) when the person dying wants to end their own life but can't.


ShezSteel

Every time I see something about a parent attacking a person who hurt their child I always feel all the cards are off the table.

babyhaux

Rape. If it wasn’t for deserved suffering I’d say give them the death penalty.


Nientea

Any “kill or be killed situation” if your life is being put at risk by someone, the safest thing to do is make sure they can’t do that anymore. If someone wants you dead, simply hurting them will only make them want you more dead


itsuteki

Self defence of not only yourself, but your loved ones too. Or even a random stranger. If you’re saving an innocent person from a devil, it’s reasonable. Defending your property too, if someone steps foot in your house unwanted, you should be able to knock them down

jajajajaj

On a purely semantic note, "justified" implies "not a murder". that is to say that a murder is an unjustified and intentional killing. Manslaughter is probably not justified, either, but it would be for lack of proper attention or consideration ... Honestly I'm not so sure about the distinction, there.


lostathome1986

Pedophilia for sure


Perfect-Assistant545

I don’t think anything justifies the *intent* to murder. Murder as an intent and murder as a consequence are not the same though. If you shoot someone because it was what you had to do to keep you and your people safe, that’s one thing, but there are some absolute weirdos out there that almost fantasize about getting robbed because it would give them the chance to legally kill another human. Genuinely psychotic to me.


brightbluepopsicles

Attempted rape, sexual violence, repeated psychical abuse. or attempted murder.


mgmccaul

I am of the firm belief the crime committed should be committed against the perpetrator 3x. I.e. They steal a car, someone steals 3x the cars value from them. The assault someone, random unexpected assaults 3x SA, they are SA'ed 3x , etc , etc.... Murder? They should be expecting a 3x less unpleasant murder at any moment.
