The initial aggressor rule was interesting to me from hearing it in this video. Can you not, hypothetically , trap someone in this way by lets say knowing they have a weapon, relying on chance that they draw that weapon upon reacting to non deadly aggression from yourself, thus justifying your next reaction by using deadly force on them? I’m not saying it’s a bad policy, I don’t know enough to make a claim I’m only hypothetically speaking from thoughts on watching this so correct me if I’m wrong. A reason why this might still not be a bad policy is that while you may get lucky and win by relying on the other persons poor judgment, it therefore still falls on that person for having the wrong reaction. Just like it is your responsibility to not react out of proportion to non deadly aggression, it was theirs as well, even though your intent was to draw out a response to reach the end goal of murdering them.
I am pleasantly surprised to learn that we do have a stand your group portion of the law.
