Self defense must meet all 5 criteria simultaneously. Innocent, imminent, unavoidable, proportional, and reasonable. "Stand your ground" or "castle doctrines" removes the avoidance criterion, but you still need to meet the other 4.

In most jurisdictions, protecting one's home or property is NOT a reasonable reason to use deadly force.
