Except for (e), (k) and (j) all of the above are justifiable killings. Some would constitute tougher choices than others, but they could all be justified.

A car accident or accidental shooting isn't 'justified' - it's just an accident. Depending on how careless you were, you might be open to criminal charges or civil liability.

An 'intentional car accident' isn't an accident, and would require some further justification.

(j) isn't a 'killing' at all so doesn't even belong in the question.

My terrific buddy and that i used to do the right comparable element yet each and every time we did it we'd arise w/another risky element to assert each and every time and attempt to conquer the different. For ex: "flow play in site visitors" , "walk off a cliff and die" "flow drown your self in the bathe" "flow ram your head into the wall 50 circumstances until it falls off" only stupid stuff truly...I propose it replaced into humorous on the time. HA! So, I thoroughly get the place your coming from once you're saying that fact, you dont propose a element by skill of it and if your buddy gets harm by skill of it then...start up thinking their humorousness.
