Ok, I am glad you were inspired to write this, it says a lot about your view on the topic and I am happy you have shared them with us. I hope more and more people would see that killing is always wrong in any situation (and that wars will become a thing of the past).
I have to say it. I am not entirely against killing. If my family is threatened I will defend at whatever level I can, including killing if necessary.
Even the original Buddha spoke about self defense. I'll take my chances with a jury in that case.
