  1. @nerthos That should be a ground-rule. being allowed to defend your honor and integrity and posessions. Like if a burglar came into my house and tried to steal my stuff I should not be handcuffed when the police show up because I broke his jaw.

    However that opens pandora's box into so called "honor killings". The Dutch police force had to be schooled to deal with these cases for reasons which have fled my mind. Basically if a woman was raped, declined an arranged marriage, or somehow else brought shame onto her own family, her family would have to see her expunged from the family tree. This is a practice hugely associated with the Middle East and South Asia. ( and not only exclusive to woman, I am pretty sure that a you can bring dishonour on your family as a boy when you break the tradition of winning the 4th grade math showdown or something. ) ... ... I am suddenly afraid of your world now.
