From the GD thread:

> [@How is Mason1972's example worse than the Zimmerman shooting?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/how-is-mason1972s-example-worse-than-the-zimmerman-shooting/825614/206):
>
> Whether Martin was ‘defending himself’ or ‘attacking’ hinges on who started the physical altercation. Merely seeing a holstered gun does not justify assault (see open-carriers, for example).
