That's the issue with society right now. The attitude of "you can't put your hands on people, call the police" clashing with the attitude of "you're a nuisance to 911, you need to invoke stand your ground and be a man".
What often happens is whether violence was on centers on who you did it to, rather than the circumstances leading up to the event, which is why I'm no longer as fond of stand your ground as I was back when I had to do things like yell at a frat boy who yelled "You can't curse at me, I know your professor" after literally crossing a street to throw a sieg heil "We're not at school you drunk nazi, get ready to call an ambulance".
He ran away as I started reaching into my pocket and yelled I was gonna put him against the wall of the parking garage across from Kilroy's, but I think he learned to never cross the street and scream nazi crap in front of the guy who passive aggressively quotes the crypto anarchist manifesto and Jim Bell every time his adviser forces him to guest lecture her class since he's technically got a research assistantship, is only covering the lecture to be kind, and never even really learned geometry properly let alone calculus in special ed, but is somehow now a "crypto" expert.
(As in cryptography. Bitcoin is for weirdos - use cash, or maybe a gift card paid for with it if you insist on not touching cash friends.)
