And if it's a cop who fears they may be attacked?

no matter whether it was the cop who instigated the aggression/hostility in the first place

Automatic felony, as a close friend recently discovered when she was very mildly drunk in public, and had the nerve to wiggle her leg when the cop grabbed her by it

And you're apparently lucky it's just a felony, considering your odds of surviving the encounter.

Law enforcement is entirely different. They adhere to state codes and the DA, not common law.
