Turning Point USA Students ATTACKED in Texas! Was the attacker acting in self-defense?

JOIN THE MEMBERSHIP: armedattorneys.com/memberships Survival is step one. We're step two. Armed Attorneys Leslie Cross and Richard Hayes examine the confrontation at a Turning Point USA event at the University of Texas at Tyler and the self-defense claim that followed. After taking an American flag and swinging a cane at attendees, can the man involved successfully argue that he was defending himself? We break down the footage, the sequence of events, and the Texas laws discussed in this case. Could attendees use force to recover their flag? Was a bystander justified in stepping in to stop the confrontation? And how does starting an encounter affect a claim of self-defense?
