I
read the article, “Texas store owner arrested after killing robber” on Fox
News. The owner of store has been arrested for murder after shooting a robber
who attenoted to steal beer from his shop. The event shows us a debatable
issue. Should we see the store owner who killed robber as a murderer? Killing
people for whatever reason cannot justify. We humans do not have any right to
kill other people. However, if you are in the situation that you could die by someone
if you don’t kill him, should you kill him or be killed? The store owner killed
the robber to defend himself. Some people dispute this opinion. They might
claim that his act is excessive defense. However, how can we expect what the
robber will do? If he did not shoot the robber, he could be killed by him. In general,
the main argumentation is that the arrest of the store owner who killed the
robber is right or wrong.The article seems to support their opinion through
emphasis of the word ‘robber’. They claims that the store owner acted in self-defense.
I agree with the article’s opinion. Killing someone cannot justify for any
reasons. However, the point is that the owner did not try to kill someone. He
just wanted to ensure his safety. We should treat his act as self-defense.
