Duobus modis aliquis est Tyrannus; uno, quia licet sit verè Do∣minus Reipublicae, injustè eam administrat. Nesas est privatis isium interficere; at pro sui defensione licet; & Respublica quoad capita convenire potest, & deponere & depositum punire.

Tyrannum secundo modo, quivis de Republica potest licitè inter∣ficere nisi ex ea interfectione major a mala Reipublicae immine∣rent; nam tune contra Reipublicae charitatem peccaret illum in∣terficiendo.

Molina de Justitia, Tract. 3. Disp. 6.
