If someone is going to hurt you, then you have a right to defend yourself, unless the harmful act you're defending against is a self-defense result of your attempt to harm the other person. If your life is in jeopardy, or the threat of great bodily harm is imminent, then you may use whatever means are available to protect yourself. In the United States, use of "deadly force" is authorized in such a circumstance, but you must be prepared to cooperate with law enforcement, the criminal justice system, and defend your actions in those environments (a good attorney is recommended).
