Only if you’re not the government.
The exclusive right to commit violence is a standard feature of governments, yes.
If someone tries to kill you just say “no thank you.”
Legally they cannot kill you.
If you do not consent, their bullets cannot enter your body either

It’s only legal to kill people when rich people can profit from it
Calls to mind the end of Month Python and the Holy Grail wherein the massed armies of King Arthur are rounded up and arrested by some constables for disturbing the peace upon the moors.
That ending was such a cop-out
TikTok girl ends all war
But they have a point, how can people legally kill other people, will every case be checked?
not literally every case, but yes there are international laws (e.g Geneva Conventions, Hague Conventions, Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons) in place detailing who is allowed to kill who and in what way.
Isn’t the point of official “declaration of war” thing is to kill people legally?
what if it’s not really a war, not that formal just a casual occasion like it’s just a holiday that somehow became a special military operation
Although one wonders if “War and Peace” would have been as highly acclaimed as it was if it was published under its original name “War: What Is It Good For?”
Come on Jerry, that’s not real!
I mean, war is partly when any/most rule of law has broken down or isn’t present.
Same vibe
Not when it’s over oil, apparently.
