I've found UseofForce to be a good resource for understanding self defense law in general (not State specific).

And this is an interesting article by a lawyer (and primarily for lawyers) discuss how to present a self defense case. I've found that it can be useful in understanding how claiming self defense works in court.

And I bet there's a whole lot more to the story than that.
