24. You are really missing the boat here.
Death as a result of the use of deadly force can be an unfortunate result. Deadly force however is only that force that might cause death or serious bodily injury. Its use is justified when used to attempt to stop an aggressive attack that might cause death or serious bodily injury. Death of the subject of deadly force is not and NEVER will be the object of the use of such force. You may use such force to "STOP" the illegal aggression of another and death "MIGHT" result but it is not the intent.
