Law post SHTF

Killing to survive is called WAR. In establishing the right to kill to survive you are condoning the continuation of war as a legetimate occupation.

There are several constants and one might look to an obsolete guide to ethics for those constants, even if the religion is forign to you. Of the Ten Commandments there are 4 that serve as guides for any culture;

Do not murder people (this does not exclude the basic human right to self defense)
Do not mess with another persons' husband or wife
Do not steal
Do not lie, espicaly about another person

In studying history I have found those aspects as being universal. I have also found that if a culture does not accept those universals then they will eventually be imposed on the culture by some outside scource. That outside source (organized government) will normally exempt themselves from the rules.
