PC §9.04. THREATS AS JUSTIFIABLE FORCE. The threat of forceWill938 wrote:Also, which statute were you referring to a while back when you were showing justification to draw down without having justification to use deadly force (obviously for threats, but threats which are not yet to that point but appear to be headed that way).
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.
If by "draw down" you mean produce a weapon.
