You don't see a big difference between a crime vs self defense? No one, regardless of status, imo, deserves to be the victim of crime. I also don't believe that criminals, nor their family, deserve compensation when that criminal is injured/killed while committing said crime.
I'm not talking about the morality of it I'm talking about the legal process.
Do we try the American in America or Mexico? The victim is a citizen of Mexico, and the perp is a citizen of America.
The victim suffered a loss at the hand of someone who belongs to a different country.
Does our legal system cover the loss of a foreigner who entered illegally and whose very presence in America is a continuing crime in itself? Yet were he a citizen it surely would.
There are probably gray areas in the law related to this, I just had never considered them before. The idea struck me so I threw it out there to see what people think. We had better get it figured out because we have a ton of illegals now.
Rape is illegal. Rape isn't "self defense" nor is it required to prevent a crime of any kind. Rapist should be charged and prosecuted.
Right, I'm just trying to highlight a potential gray area. What if someone robs an illegal?
then the robber would just be getting his money back. kek!
KEK
where's the lie?!

I think it's tried where it happened. If it happened here, it's tried here. If it happened in whatever other country, it's tried there.
