Mr. Warren was within his right to exit his vehicle and verbally challenge the manner in which Mr. Magnuson was addressing him," Gibbs' memo reads.

What the fuck. That is NOT self-defense.

The investigation found that Magnuson had acted aggressively, repeatedly taunting Warren with racial slurs and later punching Warren in an ensuing confrontation.

A memo published by the prosecutor's office says that Warren's actions were "in kind" to Magnuson's escalation. Witnesses said that Warren had attempted to discuss the matter before things became violent and that he appeared “exhausted.”

Yes it is

tit for tat is not a defense. he started it by getting out of the car to confront the man for no good reason.
