Question Presented (AI Summary)

Did the Oregon courts err in holding that there is no Constitutional right of self-defense except for when someone like the judge would have behaved the same way under a purely 'objective' 'reasonable person' standard, thus excluding all evidence of defendant's prior experiences, defendant's state of mind at the time, and defendant's intent in general?
