I think this could be spun either way. Playing devil's advocate, if a person has been involved in a physical confrontation with another, and the two become separated (perhaps by the first person either throwing the second backward, or by the first person retreating) but the second person charges, does the first person wait for more physical contact before shooting or does he shoot while the second person charges?
Just thayin, it could be manipulated both ways, and undoubtably would be.
