Can an aggressor act in self defense?

Of course not. This is exactly what's thought you were suggesting when you emphasized several times that the key was who initiated contact. You were giving me the impression that I was being thick by not agreeing.

What you said above is exactly what I was trying to say several posts ago.

In general (nothing is iron clad in SD), who initiates contact (or realistically threatens it) determines the primary aggressor....who uses deadly physical force first after that initial contact will determine who was justified in using deadly force in self defense.

All the "who followed who"..."who approached who" stuff is only important here because of the lack of independent eye witnesses. The real standard is who used/threatened deadly physical force first and if it was justified.
