What's so funny about the name Chuck Elias???
And what a surprise - the pulling out of the "it's different in my area" argument...never saw that one coming, did we?
In the situation I described, the judge made it VERY clear (so clear even someone from another state could understand it) that what made the self-defense claim work was that the official involved did not respond to the first shove, and did try to walk away.
