- Izkata 9mo agoI believe it's a legal term that's leaked out into general use: Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deadly_force https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deadly_force > Deadly force, also known as lethal force, is the use of force that is likely to cause serious bodily injury or death to another person. Cornell Law School: https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/10/1047.7 https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/10/1047.7 > (a) Deadly force means that force which a reasonable person would consider likely to cause death or serious bodily harm.
