>> ...but multiple groups willing and able to use deadly force at the least offence. > I believe we are already there with the US Presidential campaigns this year. Do you have any documented examples of deadly force in this year's US Presidential campaigns?

  Ah, I see. I misread. I'm speaking of violence and other illegal activities. But, it's early yet. EDIT: this was the definition I was thinking. Deadly force, as defined by the United States Armed Forces, is force that a person uses causing, or that a person knows or should know would create a substantial risk of causing, death or serious bodily harm or injury.
