Well. Now I feel a right ID10T for responding. I saw his new response and assumed (my bad) that it was a new thread.

As noted by rob777 above, this is not entirely correct.

I never understood why some people need to bump an old thread to add false information.

Sec. 9.04. THREATS AS JUSTIFIABLE FORCE. The threat of force is justified when the use of force is justified by this chapter. For purposes of this section, a threat to cause death or serious bodily injury by the production of a weapon or otherwise, as long as the actor's purpose is limited to creating an apprehension that he will use deadly force if necessary, does not constitute the use of deadly force.

Sec. 9.04 was cited back in November and I agree that's the correct answer.

The thread was dormant until bumped today with incorrect information.
