Are we talking about someone who has had their wallet stolen, because that's just being a little overly dramatic, don't you think?
Otherwise, the city i live in is full of refugees from war torn areas, especially somalia. These are people who have definitely had their liberty and dignity taken from them, and not in some sort of "romantic justification for carrying a gun" kind of way. These are people who've actually experienced civil war, as opposed to merely fantasizing about civil war because they want an excuse to use their guns righteously. Some of them probably would rather be dead, since suicidal depression is often a symptom of ptsd, but, judging by the rather lively community that many of them have helped create, i imagine that they are rather happy that they are still alive, despite having been robbed of liberty and dignity back home.
