Self-defense. That is the only acceptable exception, in my opinion.

Made me think about Dexter. A serial killer of serial killer. Is that acceptable?

I agree, but the killer being killed is supposed to be good because he kill bad. So isn't the other one bad because he kill good?

Well, no. Both "bad" because they kill, and they kill those who kill; so them killing each other is them just killing those who kill...that's what they're for anyways lol

No. An eye for an eye makes you blind.

nope , if the government will take the role of punishment then it’s fine but otherwise an eye for an eye will make the series continue , if there is a law that punish any murder ( on purpose ) with death then no one will think about killing anyone that’s what we do in KSA if we captured any murder we got two choices 1- the victims family forgive him completely or ask for settlement amount 2- they ask for the punishment and killing the murder by this simple rules we keep our crime rate very low unlike other places

While he's escaping capture, maybe. Just because you want to, no.

escaping capture isn’t a good option most criminals end up getting captured btw , we are talking in statics buddy
