Listen "What‘s the Defense for Self-Defense?"
Episode Synopsis
Few would argue that it is unethical to defend one's life and well-being from clear and present danger. But, it is not so easy to articulate why exactly we share this intuition. What is the moral underpinning for self-defense? Should we appeal to rights, and if so, can our attackers lose some of their rights, such as the right to life, by their misdeeds? Or do we justify self-defense on other grounds. We use the recent Kyle Rittenhouse trial as a launch point for the discussion.
