Ijebulogic: Ever so often, we humans get tested by incidents around us. Despite the anger and disgust most feel for the gruesome murder of the Uniport 4, it raises other moral questions.

Here is the scenario: Its 2am and you are asleep with you wife, new born child and aged mother-in-law. 4 Armed robbers are hacking away at your door screaming that you will be dead tonight if you dont open the door.

Assume you have a licenced shotgun in the house, Would you stand as a man and defend your family by killing all four? If no, what are your options? If Yes, how are you better than the ALUU killers? Its a moral dilemma. Comments please.

Sky Blue:

afam4eva: I would kill them all and feel no remorse.

crisycent: Is this a question?

ddim22:
Stop asking stupid question.Do you have a brain at all?[/b]Armed robbery is armed robbery whether attempted or committed.Anybody that goes stealing with a gun or knife should be killed before he kills anybody.[b]The way ALUU4 were killed is a good way to kill armed robbers.But the reason everybody is angry about their killing is because they were innocent.From the story we have heard,the community killed them thinking they were armed robbers because the cult guy they took along with them fired a gun and ran away.So incase you are an armed robber trying to sample peoples opinion,i advice you to repent and give your life to christ.

Pacify: I can understand your point of view coming from that angle but I want to be believe that there's a distinct difference between a set of robbers threatening to kill you and the speculation without any proof that some set of boys were robbers. Besides, since the boys were caught, it would have been fair justice to hand them over to the police rather than lynch them in broad day light

MRbrownJAY: @OP
You shouldn't mix apples and oranges. The scenario you gave is completely different from what happened to these 4 students.
1) an armed robber is committing a serious crime while these 4 boys only crime was to "supposedly" steal something (focus on SUPPOSEDLY)

2) killing the armed robbers would be self defense because you would be in a situation where you believed that your life (or that of your family) was in danger, while these 4 boys never threatened anyone's life.

3) if you actually believe that what happened to these boys was RIGHT (aka killing innocent people because of your own selfish beliefs), then you would obviously also believe that what BH is doing is also RIGHT.

all4naija: No! I would rather escape and call the police!

senator2k9: this does not in anyway answer the question, if those ALUU boys were same robbers on ur door by dat 2am, wil u attempt to apprehend 4 of dem n hand dem over to the police or u wil "shoot at sight"

senator2k9: do u also knw dat d debtor shouted in self defense? Coz the so called "Mr. Fearless guy" came with a gun, d debtor did not ask anyone to kill anybody, he was defending himself
