[QUOTE="Joe S, post: 1099860, member: 11163"] TITLE 21 § 1289.25. Physical or deadly force against intruder D. A person who is not engaged in an unlawful activity and who is attacked in any other place where he or she has a right to be has no duty to retreat and has the right to stand his or her ground and meet force with force, including deadly force, if he or she [B]reasonably believes[/B] it is necessary to do so to [B]prevent death or great bodily harm to himself or herself or another or to prevent the commission of a forcible felony[/B]. It seems that a lot of people get hung up on the "fear of death or imminent death" and overlook the fact that deadly force can be used to prevent a forcible felony. Kidnapping is considered a forcible felony, so deadly force would be justified. Not a dumb question, by the way. P.S. I am not a lawyer, don't play one on TV, and I did not stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night. [/QUOTE]
