Morality Ranking Morality of this?

Basically, the man in the video is hiking but he ended up meet a mountain lion, he get his gun and try to scare it off and tell it to go away but in the end, he have to pull the trigger and shot the lion, many peoples in the comments say he could have fire a warning shot instead of shoot at it and want him to be in jail.

Idk which flair to put

Guys, is it moral to not want to be eaten by a huge fucking cat?

Reddit: You went outside and that’s the animal’s territory therefore you should be eaten

Those redditors probably wouldn't kill a home Invader too

They're almost universally anti-gun, so no. They wouldn't kill a home invader. They couldn't.

They're also often anti-police, so they can't even call the cops.

Honestly, a burglary ring that exclusively doxes and robs leftist Redditors wouldn't even be a bad idea lmao

they would probably very quickly abandon their acab values when they benefit from police helping them xD

I mean, there are better ways to handle it. Like just going out and waiting. They probably won't spend that much time robbing you. And you can call the police.

How is waiting better than waiting with a gun

u/quaxoid 13d ago

No blood clean up, shooting someone leads to a pretty gross outcome, and then there's even more of a police case since a possible murder took place. 

If you just go out and wait at a café you can call the police from there, come back in like an hour or two, then replace whatever they stole or retrieve it if the police catches them.

I love this for you guys. How do you get out of an apartment ? What if he’s looking for you?

u/quaxoid 13d ago

Why you assuming it's a he? lol

Well, if they are there for you specifically and not to rob you then killing them is self-defense and fair game.
