I often hear stories of people getting beat to death, being blinded, or permanently injured by people who were using nothing more than bare fists. I'm not a real big guy. So I think it is reasonable to fear your life is in danger or that you will face severe bodily harm from a man who is threatening to "kick your ***" or "bust the **** out of you."
Let's play scenario games.
A man gets very angry with you for some reason. You are pretty darn sure is he unarmed, although you don't know for sure. You want to leave, but to do so would be impractical for whatever reason (let's say you accidentally backed into his car or something and have to wait for the police.) He continues to get irate with you and begins threatening you, beating his chest, etc. He comes towards you, and you draw your pistol. He then says something like "I dare you" and keeps coming. I think it is 100% clear to fire. What say you?
And what other situations can you think of where an unarmed man is threatening to get into a physical confrontation with you when you would NOT be able to use deadly force?
