Self-defense (United States) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Self-defense (United States) In the United States, self-defense is an affirmative defense that is used to justify the use of force by one person against another person under specific circumstances. ==General rule== In the U.S., the general rule is that "() person is privileged to use such force as ''reasonably'' appears necessary to defend him or herself against an apparent threat of ''unlawful'' and ''immediate'' violence from another."〔, xxxiii (18th ed. 2010) (original emphasis); ''see generally'' , 130 (2014).〕 In cases involving non-deadly force, this means that the person must reasonably believe that their use of force was necessary to prevent imminent, unlawful physical harm.〔, at 130; , at xxiii.〕 When the use of deadly force is involved in a self-defense claim, the person must also reasonably believe that their use of deadly force is immediately necessary to prevent the other's infliction or great bodily harm or death.〔, at 137; , at xxiii; , 141 (1999).〕 Most states no longer require a person to retreat before using deadly force. The minority of jurisdictions that do require retreat, there is no obligation to retreat when it is unsafe to do so or when one is inside their own home.〔, at xxiii.〕
