According to the definition above, having the right to do it means being entitled to do it. Sensible Castle Laws will provide the individual with the right to shoot if necessary, and therefore I have and can use that right (legally) if, and only if, it is necessary.
You're still missing the point. Succumbing to necessity does not justify your actions. To kill is an evil act, in every instance.

When it is just or absolutely necessary it is not evil. It is terrible that it must happen in these cases, but not evil. Then again, you appear to be a moral absolutist, so I don't think you'll agree.
