>So if I unjustly imprison you, and the only way for you to escape is by killing me

Completely wrong analogy. The killing doesn't help you escape at all, it just angers the jailer (who you can't touch anyway).

It was not an analogy, it was an hypothetical situation. If my human rights end where loss of life on your side begins, then according to that stated belief, the situation I mentioned is morally acceptable, is it not?
