It's not about self defense. As long as you match, and don't exceed the aggressor's energy, you're within your rights. If someone punches you, you can punch back but you can't pile drive the guy, but you can hit back just as hard.
The punch the FedEx driver threw wasn't meant to be fatal and was an acceptable retaliation after being verbally abused, then physically assaulted. It's not his fault the aggressor was glass Joe.
Ender in shambles.
Retaliation is not self-defense.
Retaliation has a meaning that does not have bearing here; mens rea for that cannot be established under the circumstances.
Level of reciprocity in force has always mattered; at least we're not under Hammurabi's anymore.
The prosecutor's office in the referenced discussion disagrees with you and you are making claims and not arguments.
