From Roberta X:
Defending yourself is not a matter of “punishment.” You’re not out to correct your assailant’s behavior, you’re wanting to stop it, as quickly and effectively as possible, with the least collateral damage. Whatever does that is what you should do.
This is the only proper response to anyone that says that self-defence is “taking the law into one’s own hands” or something similar.
