How can you legally kill someone?

Answer 1

You can't 'legally' kill someone in the course of everyday life.

However, the following scenarios do actually provide scenarios in which it happens: 1) Self defense (and this is not a complete legal analysis); if you are being attacked by someone with clear intent to kill, you have the right to defend yourself. Depending on the situation, you can be prosecuted for using more force than necessary, or not having certainly that your life is truly in danger. Likewise to defend another who is being similarly threatened.

2) In a war, soldiers are given commands to attempt to kill enemy troops as part of a mandated military action, and they cannot be prosecuted individually except for under exceptional circumstances. 3) In states that still use the death penalty, a person can be killed.

Oh, dude, you can legally kill someone in self-defense or in defense of others. Like, if someone is trying to harm you or someone else, you can use reasonable force to protect yourself. But seriously, let's not go around looking for ways to off people, okay?

If someone breaks into your home, and threatens your life, using LETHAL FORCE is legal in most states in the United States of America.
