And in this case the murderer was much larger than the person striking her. This wasn’t a fight between a large man and a dainty transwoman. The murderer is 7+ inches taller than the average adult American AMAB.

There never was the need for a knife at all

this case for sure. but thats the point about initiation of “self defense.” you lose the choice after you make it go that far. tip: don’t fight.

  In this case the transwoman was the instigator of the fight and was 100% in the wrong at every step.

    Gotcha, there are a lot if people who seem to think this was self defense based on OP’s inaccurate headline.
