Palani - you are most wise in the law. But when the law breaks in with lethal force your writs will be worthless if they decide in a split second to shoot you. That is really the whole argument in a nutshell - sure it's great we have habeas corpus and the ability to seek redress, but meanwhile in the real world there is no second chance. Personally I'd prefer to maintain control of the situation for two reasons: first, because it is a matter of principle, and second because capitulating to force is never a good idea as history has shown. It does not have to be a gunfight - there are many options to neutralize immediate threats - some are even non-lethal. But relying on after-the-fact justice is a fool's game in these times. I respect you for maintaining law and order in your life, but some of us would rather deal with it on our own terms if it actually happens.
