You merely interpreted what I said incorrectly - it's not a big deal. I also think you misunderstood what I said by "defend myself". I would not defend myself in such a manner where death was on the cards. Even if my life was in serious peril, I couldn't see myself capable of using deadly force on another person. The bottom line is that I think killing is wrong in all situations - I could hardly support the discontinued use of the death penalty and then say "sure, I'd kill someone to protect myself".
