"Self-defense is a defense and has to be proved by the defendant, not presumed, so that's why we have trials."

A good position to assure the future of trial lawyers.

Under the facts of this matter, we have someone dead and someone holding a gun claiming self defense. And you suggest -- that the law just believes the assertion of the person claiming self-defense, and no trial takes place to prove it? Are you insane?
