State of Oklahoma Tittle 21 O.S. 1289.25 Oklahoma law recognizes a special right of an occupant of a home, dwelling, business, or occupied vehicle to self-protection or to protect other occupants from a threat of harm from an illegal entry or certain other specified threats. This special law makes no distinction between degrees of force.
A: A person against whom the defensive force was used was in the process of unlawfully and forcefully entering, or had unlawfully and forcibly entered, a dwelling , residence, occupied vehicle, or a place of business, or that the person had removed or was attempting to remove another against the will of that person from the dwelling, residence, occupied vehicle or business; and the person who uses defensive force knew or had reason to believe that an unlawful and forcible entry or unlawful and forcible act was occurring or had occurred.
Note that this is only a presumption. In other words the court will start off with the idea that the person had reasonable fear of imminent peril of death or great bodily harm, but the presumption may be overcome by the evidence.
The state of Missouri reads about the same as the state of Oklahoma. When I start out the CC classes I start by saying when you make the decision to draw your gun life for you is about to get complicated. Remember this statement, I was so scared I pissed my pants!
