Hypothetically....

G85, Torts

Boy: So if someone is breaking into my house, is it better to use deadly force, or is it better to shoot to injure?

Prof: Well I guess you are safer shooting to injure. But this is not legal advice, I’m not your lawyer, I’m just an instructor.

Boy: I mean if you kill someone, and they have no family, who would bring a tort case?

Prof: Probably no one...

Boy: So are you saying I should go after their family?

Prof: You are freaking me out.
