Under Missouri law, which of the following is considered a valid use of deadly force?

  1. Protecting oneself from an immediate threat of danger

  2. Preventing a theft

  3. In any situation if carrying a concealed weapon

  4. None of the above

The correct answer is: Protecting oneself from an immediate threat of danger

Under Missouri law, deadly force is defined as "any physical force that creates a substantial risk of death or serious physical injury." This means that it can only be used in self-defense when facing an immediate threat of danger, and it must be a reasonable response to the situation. Preventing a theft and carrying a concealed weapon do not fall under the definition of deadly force and would not be considered valid uses. Using deadly force in these situations could lead to criminal charges. Therefore, options B and C are incorrect. Option D, none of the above, is also incorrect as protecting oneself from an immediate threat of danger is considered a valid use of deadly force under Missouri law.
