i have always wondered what is the general opinion to this question. Now everyone says that objects/property is not worth a human life. Here is a simplified scenario compared to real life that i wonder would change that opinion.
Say there is a small town dairy producer, he owns all his own equipment. He however can not afford any type of insurance. His life and family's welfare depend on his cows and equipment to be able to produce a profit so that his family may survive.
Now comes along a person/persons/gang and they start to destroy his property. He is armed and confronts telling them to leave. They ignore his warning and continue to destroy his property, while not endangering his life. The destruction of his property and equipment will however end up endangering his family due to loss of the ability to produce a means to survive (aka money, ability to buy food and so on)
Now should he be able to stop them with necessary for force to ensure his livelihood and welfare of his family. Or let them destroy it.
Please do not get caught up in the details, I am more interested in the spirit the question is asked. Thanks all
