As an example “Would it have been justifiable, for a 17 year old girl to murder her father, who has been sexually assaulting her since the age of 10 and violently abusing her mother since the day she was born?”
I will not tell my own answer to that question, unless anyone explicitly requests it.
Justifiable? Well sure. But the legal system (in the USA, at least) would still regard it as homicide. Only in the case of "justifiable homicide" would she not be arrested and prosecuted, and this would probably not qualify. However, in most places in the USA, no jury would convict her.Would it have been justifiable, for a 17 year old girl to murder her father, who has been sexually assaulting her since the age of 10 and violently abusing her mother since the day she was born?”
Whether or not it is morally justified to simply hate your abusive parent, is a subject matter that I feel would be better served as a question applied to a different scenario, or is reworded. Under my views a more appropriate variant of this question should be applied to the possible actions those children take against their parents, who have been abusive or negligent.

To stop an assault? Absolutely.As an example “Would it have been justifiable, for a 17 year old girl to murder her father, who has been sexually assaulting her since the age of 10 and violently abusing her mother since the day she was born?”
Big difference between hate, and stopping rape, and killing people. Three very different things.Ideally you want to love everyone, but rape is anti-ideal. You have to kill it and retain the people you have. Forgiveness is an after thought. This is the situation pacifist catch shit for. Don't know what to do. Can't love them to death, maybe love them whole what they're missing.
It all depends on whos morals are gettin gored.!!!
The 17 year old has a right to see it as bein morally justifiable to kill that parent... but i dont see it as morally justifiable that anyone shoud be killed.!!!
An yes... im on pins an needles to hear you'r "own answer to that question".!!!
Agreed.To stop an assault? Absolutely.
If she had escaped him, and plotted to kill him, and finally did so after coming up with a good way to do it? Definitely not.

Agreed.
I think she does. Saying "I wasn't in danger but I was very, very angry" should not be a defense for murder.Even if she plotted... an then killed him... i dont thank she deserves punishment for it.!!!
Someone who suffers years of abuse would likely always fear that their abuserI think she does. Saying "I wasn't in danger but I was very, very angry" should not be a defense for murder.
And unfortunately, it can cause severe, long-term damage to a community or an entire nation.Hate often causes more damage to the hater than to the object of hate.
