Does his use of that advantage render the action of self-defense unjustifiable? If it resulted in the loss of the aggressor's life, does it become murder? Would someone not want the most modern and capable defensive tool available if those that would harm him have this tool available to them as well? Would he risk life and limb of himself and those loves in order to stay in the confines of the law but put himself at a potential disadvantage to his adversaries, or would he rather risk his own freedom and break the law to save what matters most to him? What if those that wrote these laws are the aforementioned aggressors? When do logic, human instinct, and basic human rights supercede the law?

They should not be charged with murder on account of Self-Defense, however they should still be charged with using/possessing whatever the illegal device in question was, unless it was like taking the assailant's illegally obtained gun and using it against them or something of the sort.

It should be known that the government should have the right to confiscate anyone's life for possession of illegal machines. The ideal outcome would be Jackbooted Thugs © arriving and euthanizing everyone, including any Urban Warfare Gangsters© Or god fearing white non homosexual Christians. Any onlookers should be given Mass Murder Suicide Pills©

I wasn't refering to the device being illegal in it's procurment, but rather its function. I find the whole concept of outlawing a mechanical function absurd. Criminals don't obey the law. If they are willing to commit a violent crime, they are likely willing to do so with a weapon with illegal functionality.

Does a man have the right to defend his lolis if the government tries to take them away?
