[QUOTE="Werewolf, post: 2249162, member: 239"] IANAL so my research may be flawed. I did an extensive search on the internet re: disparity of force as a recognized legal principle in Oklahoma and cannot find any references to it. As I stated in another thread, in 2003 Doug Friesen taught in a CCW class that DOF was not a recognized legal principle in OK. All the references I found relating to disparity of force eventually end up back to Ayoob. The one OK reference that I did find was on a Stillwater Concealed Carry Org site which flat stated that disparity of force was justification in OK but didn't reference any statute or case law to back that claim up - instead only referencing the writings of Ayoob. A question for our licensed attornies on OSA: Is disparity of force a legal principle recognized in OK? Is it indirectly recognized or directly? Is it statutorily recognized or does case law make DOF a justification for using lethal force? In other words if a 25 year old unarmed NFL Defensive lineman attacks a 70 year old guy that's out of shape, overweight, old and slow would disparity of force justify the old guy shooting the young guy to stop the attack?
