  19. I have seen articles over the past couple of days saying that we should not
  20. defend ourselves but that we do have a responsibility to defend other people,
  21. especially our family.
  22.    Would the fact that a person who has attacked you is extremely likely to
  23. then go on and attack someone else be a reason to defend yourself and try to
  24. restrain your attacker(s) if possible in order to prevent any further
  25. attacks?
  26.   In particular I would be interested to hear views from anyone who is unsure
  27. about defending just themself but would act to defend someone else.
  28.  
  29.   Yours in Christ,
  30.             Peter D
