Is there really no self-defense in a bar fight?


Is there really no self-defense in a bar fight? You cannot claim self-defense if you hit someone because they made a remark that you did not like. However, if someone else threw the first punch in a bar fight, you may be able to argue self-defense for hitting back. Similarly, any force that you use to defend a friend in a bar fight must also be proportionate.
