Under what two conditions is the use of force or self-defense not permitted?

The correct answer highlights two scenarios in which the use of force or self-defense is not legally justified: when someone is being arrested by a police officer and when a lawful property owner is asserting their rights. In these situations, the law recognizes the authority of law enforcement and property owners to control a situation without the interference of force from an individual.

When a police officer is performing their duties, individuals are generally required to comply with lawful orders. Resorting to any form of force during an arrest can escalate the situation and lead to additional legal consequences for the individual involved. Similarly, a lawful property owner has the right to manage their property and, unless they are using excessive force, any effort to retaliate or defend oneself may be viewed as unlawful.

In contrast, the other provided options relate primarily to interpersonal conflicts and verbal provocations, circumstances where the legal justification for self-defense can be complex. However, they do not illustrate scenarios where the right to use force is outright prohibited as clearly as the correct answer does.
