The fore knowledge of the end results is pretty limiting for discussion. Obviously a reasonable person wouldn't want somebody dead over a few material possessions. That's why this question is ridiculous, why can I only respond with killing the person or taking a beating? Why can't I just crack his ass? If someone tries to rob me and in the process they start beating me, you better believe I am going to start throwing thunder; if he's smart he'll get the picture and won't stick around, if he's stronger he'll fend me off and beat my ass and get what he came for, if he's stupid he'll keep going at me and I will have no problem beating him to the point of incapcitation or death. We are only animals and the most basic instinction is self preservation, problem is I don't like running from situations like this.
