There's video of Rosenbaum instigating Kyle's group. Aggressively and challenging anyone to "shoot me .....!". Several times.
Shortly after Rosenbaum is seen chasing Kyle then throwing a weighted object in his direction. Nearly or possibly hitting Kyle in his left shoulder. Kyle continues to retreat.
While retreating, Kyle uses a car, or several cars, as an obstacle to shield himself or hide from Rosenbaum, who continues to pursue Kyle.
Kyle either gets cornered or abandons his desire to retreat.
Rosenbaum continues to pursue Kyle, grabbing at his rifle more than once. Kyle fires his rifle in self defense.
The rest is pretty clear and I don't think anyone really denies his later actions clearly fall under self defense. But those actions are only defendable if he didn't "murder" Rosenbaum initially. Which I believe is fair to say was also self defense. His actions showing him initially retreating is key. Also, the video of him being interviewed prior to all events shows his intent. Not sure if that will help but if he had shown ill intent, like AK guy in Austin, then it would be used against him. Certainly in the public view.
