Does Idaho have a 'stand your ground' law?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Only within one's home

  4. Only in public spaces

The correct answer is: Yes

Idaho is one of more than 30 states in the United States that has a 'stand your ground' law. This means that in Idaho, an individual is allowed to use deadly force for self-defense without first attempting to retreat from any place they are legally allowed to be. This concept applies in both private and public spaces, making options C and D incorrect. While Idaho also has castle doctrine laws, which allow an individual to use deadly force for self-defense within their own home, this is not the same as a 'stand your ground' law, making option C incorrect. Therefore, the only correct answer is A Yes.
