Under no circumstance.

There are times when I am so disgusted and enraged about the criminal acts of a person that I wish them death just for revenge....

But I can't succumb to that.  It has taken a lot of thinking... but I just cannot justify the taking of somebody else's life except in extreme cases of self defense.

At the same time, if a man was raping your child and you caught him and shot him, I don't think you should be charged with a crime... you obviously don't have a lot of time or the wherewithal to think to yourself "okay.. let's calm down and think about this rationally"... it's gonna be shoot now, ask questions later no matter who you are.  And any judge or jury who doesn't accept that is not worthy.
