A decent summary from a lawyer
One interesting thing I got out of this is that in an alternate universe, say Kyle was killed. Odds are, his killer (say the guy that pointed a gun at him) would also be able to claim self-defense. In other words, self-defense laws often create a situation where everyone involved can claim self-defense. Basically, the last man standing wins and can get away with it. A pitfall when vigilantism and self-defense laws intersect.
