it is morally permissible for victims to use deadly force as a deliberate response to repeated domes

Affirmative final focus I will first begin with talking about what has happened in the round. I would first like to state that my opponent stated during their rebuttal "My opponent has not proven that self-defense is a right guaranteed to individuals." Although, I most defiantly have when I stated my Value Criterion multiple times in the debate. My value criterion which is "it is important that you use self defense as a matter of protecting yourself, and looking out for your own personal interests which are living." Id like to state that yes, I have shown how individuals have a right to use self defense, when I state my criterion. My opponent also stated people have a right to live and in order to survive you must value self defense. Also, I would like to point out that my opponent states in the first paragraph of his rebuttal that since I supposedly haven't proved my value of self defense is higher than his value of unalienable rights, although. As people we should all know the government cant defend everyone. We must take it into our own hands to defend ourselves. My opponent also didn't touch my argument of the abuser will do both physical and verbal abuse. Therefore I would like to extend my argument about this therefore, deadly force would be lawful according to Thomas Aquinas My opponent stated my emotional story is invalid. Although, it is not invalid. It shows that domestic violence does range from verbal to physical it shows that domestic violence will always be repeated. So, therefore I would like to say my story in contention one is valid. My opponent has not opposed the fact that you must have self defense In order to have life therefore I would like to extend my criterion. My opponent doesn't touch my argument about "since ones intention is to save their own life this is not unlawful" and that is why you use self defense to save your own life. I would like to extend this argument also. My opponent states I hold his 5th contention to be true. But, if I held his 5th contention to be true I wouldn't have refuted it during my 3rd and 4th paragraph in my rebuttal. my opponent does not refute my argument about how an abuser threatens to kill their victim, and a threat would be taken seriously after all the stuff the victim has been through with their abuser. Therefore, this proves my 3rd contention correct. Now moving onto my opponents case. My opponent is still refuting the fact the that you have to have self defense in order to survive. Although, my opponent thinks their value of inalienable rights will help a person survive. You cant do that if you cant defend yourself. My opponent argues the government will protect you, he argues this continually. He also states it is a moral debate. And government is not how a person will achieve morality. A person cant have life and continuously depend upon the government. We must fend for ourselves. We must not allow someone to be around you continuously and hurt you. Physically, mentally, emotionally, etc. this is why it is moral to use self defense. It allows you to have life. My opponent stating that self defense is immoral would be like stating life is immoral. Now, in the world of my opponent you are basically allowing someone to abuse you. Waiting on someone from the government to help you. Suffering. This is why the value of self defense is better than my opponents. It is true It isn't just some theory. You do it yourself. You are independent. Thank you for your time and please vote AFFIRMATIVE (:
